Merlin garage door opener light flashing.

This is a problem that will require you or a service person to replace it. If your garage door opener light is continually flashing there s probably a problem with your safety sensor. The number of times it flashes tells you exactly what the problem is. The led light that is referred to in this article is the small light that is located on the opener near the adjustment learn or program buttons.

If this doesn t fix your problem then the problem is more than likely the safety reversing sensors. To fix this issue first locate the two photo eyes attached to your garage door and clean the lens using a soft microfiber cloth. If the circuit breaker or gfci is tripping repeatedly it s a sign that there is a short circuit somewhere in the system possibly even the garage door opener itself. Finally it s possible the garage door opener s motor has burned out and isn t operating at all.

The light from the opener blinks 10 times to warn you about misaligned photo eyes. Once you see the double flash press the control button on the remote control. Once you push this button the light on the garage door opener will flash twice.
