Garage door opener problem
Original Message Jan 26, 2005 12:00 pm |

This past weekend I was heading down to the local library with my son. The garage door took three times to close and stay closed. Would start going up again before closing. It finally stayed closed and we took off. Yesterday my wife was going to going out for the first time since the weekend and I cautioned her about the door, saying it might have a problem. She then informs me (finally) that we had left the cell phone behind and that she wanted to bring it out to us as the roads were slick. Unbeknownst to me, she was in the garage trying to open the door while I was outside in the car trying to close it. She finally gave up and went into the house. Any advice?

Chris, Those really were your kids in the pictures!!! I am glad you found a piece of your world that parallels my reality!! I always figured that for how often my wallet gets emptied when I am not wearing it, why the heck would she put it back in my pants to wash them? Go figure.... :) Walt
Walt here is my Homepage that I had posted on the old forum. It requires some updating, sorry, just too busy...

this is my remote:  It's been with my wife and i for 4 years now, has been dropped well over a dozen times, had milk, soda, and water spilled on it, and still works perfectly. It's used primarily with our home theatre in the den, and is a fully learning remote with macro functionality. True it was a bit awkward to use at first, not having any "hard" buttons, but i've come to like. Can be had on ebay pretty cheap these days, $50 range anyway. I paid 85 for it in 2001. They've got a few more sweet models now, that i would prob get if this one broke. I have found the CS remotes to be the best remotes for the money and they are OEM'd by(among others) rca, and IIRC kenwood. http://www.crispsolutions.com
