2 year old Craftsman Garage Door opener and door intermitantly opens and closes partway. Was fine for 1.5+ years. No obstuction. Balanced, Oiled, eye seems OK since the green light is constantly on on the sending side. I am going to play with some settings next such as up and down force. Will do reversal safety check afterwards. Track style, chain driven. It is a light door with newer style internal springs and seems balanced in any position. It does not roll effortlessly, but not too difficult to pull/push.
Door seams to reverse only when it should and is not too sensitive. The door just stops and does not move, until you push a button again, and then it either continues on or occasionally reverses. It seemed to work great for a dozen tries after oiling the hinges, but is up to its old tricks. Do you have other ideas or am I stuck calling a pro when it seems like only an adjustment is needed. Any advice from a handy person.
