use only alkaline batteries............ BRAND NEW

regular carbon zinc cant meet the demands

check the antenna on the opener likely a small wire haning out in space
from the opener

any chance you recently added a fluroscent lamp, espically the compact
type? they can interfer with openers......



Yep, new batteries.

Will check the continuity of the antenna, perhaps vibration has
compromised the wire where it exits the housing?

No new fluorescent lamps.

Thanks for the input.
