First make sure the door operates reasonably without the opener. (ie,
make sure a spring isn't broken). If all is OK, older genies had a
clutch adjustment on the back of the screw. If so, tighten it
slightly until the problem goes away. You said the you set the
sensitivity adjustment for max. It seems like max sensitivity is the
opposite of what you want. Maybe you just worded it incorrectly.
Good luck.


Well... He says the motor is intermittent but then says it starts OK.
Maybe, it's not the motor.
