Hello,
Both of my remotes are no longer working for one of my garage doors but
work fine on the other door. The door that is not working via the
remotes works fine from the hard wired button on the wall. The LED in
the wall button is flashing continuous, and the LED on the back of the
opener flashes when I press the button on the remote (so I assume it is
receiving the signal). From the research I've done in this group it
looks like the door went into a lockout mode while I was at work. The
problem is I only have a single button on the wall switch so I don't
know how to unlock the lock out. I also don't have the manuals for the
openers because they were already installed when I bought the house.
The opener is a craftsman 1/2 HP model # 139.53970SRT any help would
be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Scott

I'd monkey with the wall switch button. Mine has 3 (not Craftsman) and
I accidently locked mine out. Maybe it takes a series of pushes or
something.

If you have electric eye safety system? Do you have to hold the wall
button down?

Trying unplugging the GDO to see if it resets itself

Why don't you just go to Sears.com and see if you can get the mauals..
you probably lost the program. You might be able to download them.

You can get the manual from Sears. Part number 114A2399 1-800-252-1698
between the hours of 6:00am and 11:00pm, Central Time, 7 days per week,
to speak to a Sears parts professional. THey were having problems with
the site. I couldn't get the price of the manual.
