my garage door light sensors are not working

my wall mount and remotes are not working. I have reset the remote but when I try to open the door all I get is a clicking noise from the opener

One solution might be that the trolley has dead ended on the bolt by the motor head. If this is the case you need to take the tension off the chain and back it off the bolt and adjust the up travel to not hit it.

Another solution might be that the opener has taken a power surge and the logic board needs replaced. There is not really a home test for this other than if it is acting weird or erratic, it is probably the board. You can find this at sears.com. We also recommend a surge protector on all openers 900 joules or higher. Thanks BB

This is a great place to go for advice, especially if you're low on funds and you could resolve the problem before calling and paying a service call, if it's an easy fix. I'm glad you are there for me.
