My Genie garage door opener operates irradically, not opening after successfully closing, etc. What causes it? Closing the door manually and resetting the pull-down arm allows the door to open automatically but then is again unable to proceed. At other times when lowering the door, it will start to lower, go about a 1/3 of the way and then reverse itself. The arm must then be reset to get any action.

Malfunctioning Genie Garage Door Closer/Opener? My sister used the roller tract of an old style chain driven Genie Garage Door Opener as a coat hanger during a garage sale. She forgot to remove the hangers before closing the door. She removed the coat hangers after the door would not close and then the door closed. The next time the closer/opener was activated to open the door, it worked. When we went to close the door the next time, it would only close about 1/3 of the way before hanging up. I discovered one of the rollers had come out of the tract on the side where the coat hangers were hung. I was able to place the roller back in but now the door opener/closer has trouble opening and closing the door without assistance. The last 1/3 going up and the first 1/3 going down is not a problem. The other 2/3 up and down needs assistance. The tracts look ok. The rollers look ok. I lubricated the door hinges and the roller shafts but the problem remains. The track does not appear to be misaligned. Any ideas would be welcome. Would a very slight misalignment that I don't see cause this? This is an old style opener (before 1995) and we have made an investment of 5 additional remotes for this garage door opener/closer for various family members to use. If we can fix the problem without a lot of expense, we would like to try and fix it rather than buying new. We do not plan on having the home much longer. Again, we welcome your suggestions and thank you in advance for any advise you offer.

Old Genie garage door opener......? I recently purchased a condo and the garage door open is a Genie brand. It is very old. The previous homeowners put on what looks like an extension of some sort to allow the use of a remote. I am unable to get the remote from the previous owners. I noticed the attatchement has 9 switch codes. So, I bought a craftsman remote with the 9 switch codes. Doesn't work. The extension says, "Allstar" on it. Any ideas on how I can get a remote to work?
Why did the Genie garage door opener decide I was an alcoholic? So I was getting ready to install the new garage door opener, and I opened the box and pulled out the instructions. The first thing it said was "You need a screwdriver", and I thought , well, yeah, probably if I am going to do all this work, so I went in and fixed myself a screwdriver. I went back out to the garage and looked at the instructions again, and it said "You need a screwdriver", so , hey, why not. I had another screwdriver, but after the fourth or fifth time of reading these instructions, I didn't want to put in that dang garage door opener anymore. Now , what I want to know is this. Why do they make instructions like that? I remember that trick Proctor and Gamble played on me with "Shampoo, Rinse, Repeat" dangit, I was in the shower for three days. What do you think?

Garage door opener question? I have the same brand garage door opener (Genie) as my neighbor, whose garage is adjacent to my own. Often, when I am driving up and I hit my button, it opens her garage door (and vice versa), posing a security risk and causing a big hassle in general, trying to get them to open and/or close as I need them to do. Does anyone know if getting a different brand of garage door opener would solve the problem? I have tried getting a new remote opener and reprogramming the one I already had and none of this has worked. Any suggestions would be appreciated, thanks. The door opener otherwise works as it should.
