We installed a new opener last night. I wish I would have seen this before we tried to program it. It would have made things easier on me and my dad. Well done sir!
I found the trick is to make the door so the rubber weather stripping at the bottoms barely touches the concrete. Then opener automatically allows the door to gracefully fall into place the last 2 in. Like a built in soft close feature. Use the arrow to slam in into its final resting spot will activate the safety feature when adjusting and ruin the adjustment process. Hope this helps!
Wow. You saved me some dollars for a service call to a technician. Your second step about measuring the force of the opening and closing was the part I didn't know and was causing my issue. I have a Chamberlain B4505T. Even their manual didn't have that step! Thanks.😊😅
Thanks so much. My instructions had nothing about the fast flashing up and down buttons after setting up the travel settings. Ten minutes after watching your video it was working! I played with it for hours trying to get it to work using the instruction manual that came with it. Thanks again!
Saved my day! Just installed my new garage door opener using the Chamberlain user guide and the open/close instructions were terrible! Thank you so much for this
I just installed mine and its not programming 🥹🥹🥹 its giving me an error, excessive force to close, my guess is i have to adjust the rails on the side or something, manually door goes up and down not that bad
@@Subietech yeah I would definitely make sure the door isn't dragging and running pretty smooth. I would maybe lubricate the rollers, hinges, and springs. If you have an extension spring set up, hit those pulleys with lube. Then press the yellow button twice. That puts it in force setting mode. Press the flashing arrow that's flashing. Let it cycle. Then press the flashing arrow again. Let it cycle....
@@garagedoorgenius hey can u believe i couldn’t programmed the limits because when hitting the up arrow i was going all the way to the stop to the bolt, you cannot do that u have to stop it like a inch before, i had to watch your video one last time and i noticed it 🙈🙈🙈 , thanks for your video
Thank you for this. I bought this for my daughter/son in law a couple years ago while visiting and came back to it still unfinished from then. Of course "someone" doesn't know where the instruction manual is for it after 2 years but that's okay.... I've got you here on this wonderful TH-cam. Where everyone can be a professional in only a half a day!
Thanks, probably should have read the directions but I didn't and have no idea where they are now. It worked great for years then this happened . You completely saved me. Thanks again 😊
That was very helpful ! spent 2 days trying to figure why it's not working, even bought another unit thinking it's has some technical problem, thanks a lot!
Thank you very much. Your very detailed instructions and demos helped me to .ake sense of all those blinking and beekeeping on my garage door opener and finally set it up. Thank you again.
I'm a handyman and garage door is not my area of specialization but after watching this video i was able to help a client to program his Garge door.. Thanks
Oh my gosh thank you so much for this video!!! Myq would not open or close and could not figure out for the life of me why. I got it fixed finally! Thanks!!
Sounds like you are a pro. I followed the Chamberlain instructions multiple times. I watched your video once. The programming fails to set the open limit every time. It continues to hit the bump stop. I even set the the open limit to about half open and when done it still raises to the bump stop. Chamberlain is beyond slow to respond. Compliments on your video, that is the way it is supposed to work.
Phillip if it's not keeping the limits it could be the logic board. I know it sucks waiting to speak to tech support. Have your Model # and serial # ready. If it's under warranty Chamberlain will send you a new board. I would definitely go that route. Also tell them Garage Door Genius needs his check!! Lolz
This video was awsome , my manual never mention how to bump the buttons (up/down) . Knowing this , made it so easy to adjust the door . Thank you , thank you ,thank you !
Thank you for this video, this thing was driving me nuts. Got it from a friend with no manual or info. Didn't know the pressure control either. Beautiful video!
Thank you! The manual for the 6753T DOES NOT mention the required force adjustment. The installers had no idea why the door would open, but not close. I've sent the installers links to your videos. Again. many thank!
Awesome video! Before I watched this video the chain was way too loose, the bar was bowed from all of the pressure from the cable side, and the cable side was so tight It looked like the cable would cut your head off. I watched your video and it was 1,2,3 and everything worked perfect! You saved me a lot of grief!! Thank you so much for the video.
ok....thank you very much...after 8 hours and 2 days it finally works. mysterious things happening in the garage. if it doesn't work double check everything. ..wires and all....somehow the wires got cut...must be a ghost...lol project done. thx for help!
Your audio...😂 Sounds like you are in the middle of a cicada invasion and your garage door opener is radioactive. LOL! But great video my friend! Thanks, you solved my issue perfectly, and explained it very well.
If you would like to leave a tip or donation, please do so right here! Just think, this video just saved you a service fee!! Thanks www.paypal.me/garagedoorgenius
MUCH better than the directions that came with the opener. They don't make clear it's the black button that's needed to make this work. It's much easier than other openers, but this made things a bit more intuitive.
To be honest I’m gonna give you some good credit on the emergency release rope and handle you are the first garage door installer that I seen who actually tied off correctly so please keep up the good work on doing that and if you have any access rope please just trim it burn and if you want or just leave it but the way you have it set up good job
Same here I winged it and the belt was loose on one side and tight on the other because of too much pressure on the way down. Followed your instructions now works like butter.
I have the b4505t version. Be aware that it does not have a battery back up. I fought it tooth and nail and to reset the unit to start the travel over, you leave it unplugged for a few minutes. Once I did that I followed this video and finally found success.
@garagedoorgenius Thanks so much for this video!!!!! Chamberlain's manual is really poor because there is no image of the back of the unit and so their instruction about the adjustment button is not obvious and it seems like you should start the process by using the arrows. Your video saved my Sunday! Thank you!
Thank you so much my garage door and motor were replaced a few months ago and randomly I started getting error messages for different things such as excessive closing and opening force, sometimes cable tension failure because the garage refused to stay closed without the light blinking. It would go all the way down then immediately back up. I had to manually close it because I had no idea what the cause was and after just reprogramming the whole thing the this solved the issue. Last few saver 🙏🏻
Hola señor Richard... the unit we have is a chamberlain whisper drive plus... I will google it to find out more information about it... thank you so much for sharing this video....
Thank you so much señor Richard for the tip I think my son(teenager)will follow all your advice and tips...may God bless your business with plenty of work and new customers...Gracias!!!
@@hamer3mark how does the door feel manually? Can you pull it up halfway and let go without it falling to the floor? 4-1 error is definitely a force control issue.
Watched a few other videos, and this is what i was looking for. Short, sweet, simple, and effective. 5 stars! Thank you for sharing! 🙏🏼

@@garagedoorgenius They had me disengage the door, set limits, run up & down and engage the door. It worked perfectly. A little undocumented trick.

Hola señor Richard... the unit we have is a chamberlain whisper drive plus... I will google it to find out more information about it... thank you so much for sharing this video....
Whisper Drive plus I believe the adjustments are on the side of the unit. You wanna back off the (down limit) if the opener is closing to hard.
You'll need a flat head screwdriver.
