1. Check photo eyes (small black boxes on the framing near the bottom of your garage door). Make sure the lights are on in both eyes. If no lights are on, call for service. 2. If one photo eye light is on, but the other light is off, they have been knocked out of alignment. Take the photo eye with the light that is off and move it until the light comes on. If you move that one and still no light try moving the other side, it could have gotten hit. Make sure nothing obvious is in the way. Also check to make sure the vibration of the door does not make the photo eye go off again. Why does my opener motor runs, but will not open or close the door. Can you open and close the door manually? If so then your emergency release cord has been pulled. You need to reengage the opener. Follow the red cord up to the ceiling, push the clip back towards the back of the garage, you will hear it snap in place. If this does not solve your problem, give us a call.
