Frequently Asked Questions - 041D17391 CHAMBERLAIN

How to install the Chamberlain 041D17391 motor kit?

Disconnect the mains power and battery. Remove the old motor by taking off the end panel, logic board, and harness. Install the new motor, reconnect the harnesses, then replace the cover. Adjust the belt/chain tension according to the instructions (6 mm or 13 mm above the rail depending on carriage type).

How to program the opening and closing positions?

Use the UP, DOWN, and adjustment buttons. Press the adjustment button until UP flashes, then hold UP until the desired position. Press adjustment. Then program DOWN similarly. Finish by pressing UP then DOWN successively to confirm.

What to do if the light flashes 5 times or 10 times during programming?

Flashing 5 times means a programming timeout: repeat the steps. Flashing 10 times indicates that the safety reverse sensors are misaligned or obstructed. Check alignment and clear any obstacles before performing a full cycle.

How to test the safety reverse system?

Place a 1.5-inch thick board (2x4 flat) centered under the closed door. Press the remote to close the door: it should reverse upon contact with the board. If not, adjust the travel. Repeat the test monthly.

How to perform the Protector® system test?

Open the door and place an obstacle in the path. Press the remote to close: the door should not descend more than 1 inch and the light flashes 10 times. If it closes despite the obstacle, contact a technician.

What is the correct tension for the chain or belt?

For chain with type A carriage: set to 6 mm above the base of the rail at midpoint. For chain with type B carriage: 13 mm. For belt: tighten until the sag is about 1.25 inches.

What tools are needed for installation?

You need a 1/4-inch magnetic nut driver, long-nose pliers, a 5/16-inch long-shaft magnetic nut driver and socket, and a flat-head screwdriver.

What to do if the door does not open or close after installation?

First check the power supply and harness connections. Ensure the safety sensors are aligned and unobstructed. Reprogram the travel. If the problem persists, contact a technician.

How to maintain the opener motor?

Test the safety reverse system and Protector® sensors monthly. Check belt/chain tension annually. Clean the sensors with a soft cloth. Do not use chemicals.

What models are compatible with this motor kit?

This motor kit (ref. 041D17391) is compatible with Chamberlain garage door opener models 041D1739-1, 041D1624-1, and 041D8006-1. Check compatibility with your device before installation.

10. Secure the new motor assembly to the chassis. (If screws are provided with the new motor assembly, use them. If screws are not provided, use the screws from the old motor assembly.)

11. Attach the old travel module wire harness to the travel module on the new motor assembly.
12. Reattach all the wire harnesses to the logic board (be sure the tabs on the wire harnesses are facing the end panel, not the logic board).
13. Reattach the cover, then the end panel.
14. Reconnect the wires to the quick-connect terminals.
15. Reattach the light lens.
16. Reattach the sprocket and use the C-clip to hold the sprocket in place.

20. Set the belt/chain tension:

21. For chains with trolley type A, tighten the nut until the chain is a 1/4 inch (6 mm) above the base of the rail at the midpoint of the rail.

22. For chains with trolley type B, tighten the nut until the chain is a 1/2 inch (13 mm) above the base of the rail at the midpoint of the rail.
    For belts with trolley type A or B, tighten the nut until the spring is as close to 1 - 1 / 4'' (3.18 cm) as possible.

23. Connect power.

Proceed to Adjustments.

ADJUSTMENTS

PROGRAM THE TRAVEL

Your garage door opener is designed with electronic controls to make setup and adjustments easy. The adjustments allow you to program where the door will stop in the open (UP) and close (DOWN) position. The electronic controls sense the amount of force required to open and close the door. The force is adjusted automatically when you program the travel and cannot be changed.

Setting the UP position:

1. Press and hold the Adjustment Button until the UP Button begins to flash and/or a beep is heard.
2. Press and hold the UP Button until the door is in the desired UP position. NOTE: The UP and DOWN Buttons can be used to move the door up and down as needed.
3. Once the door is in the desired UP position press and release the Adjustment Button. The garage door opener lights will flash twice and the DOWN Button will begin to flash.

Setting the DOWN position:

1. Press and hold the DOWN Button until the door is in the desired DOWN position. NOTE: The UP and DOWN Buttons can be used to move the door up and down as needed.
2. Once the door is in the desired DOWN position press and release the Adjustment Button. The garage door opener lights will flash twice and the UP Button will begin to flash.
3. Press and release the UP Button. When the door travels to the programmed UP position, the DOWN Button will begin to flash.

4. Press and release the DOWN Button. The door will travel to the programmed DOWN position. Programming is complete.

5. If the garage door opener lights are flashing 5 times during the steps for Program the Travel, the programming has timed out. If the garage door opener lights are flashing 10 times during the steps for Program the Travel, the safety reversing sensors are misaligned or obstructed (refer to owner's manual). When the sensors are aligned and unobstructed, cycle the door through a complete up and down cycle using the remote control or the UP and DOWN buttons. Programming is complete. If you are unable to operate the door up and down, repeat the steps for Programming the Travel.

WARNING

Without a properly installed safety reversal system, persons (particularly small children) could be SERIOUSLY INJURED or KILLED by a closing garage door.

• Safety reversal system MUST be tested every month.
  After ANY adjustments are made, the safety reversal system MUST be tested. Door MUST reverse on contact with 1 - 1 / 2^n (3.8cm) high object (or 2x4 laid fl at) on floor.

CAUTION

To prevent damage to vehicles, be sure fully open door provides adequate clearance.

ADJUSTMENTS

1. With the door fully open, place a 1-1/2 inch (3.8 cm) board (or a 2x4 laid flat) on the floor, centered under the garage door.
2. Press the remote control push button to close the door. The door MUST reverse when it makes contact with the board.

If the door stops and does not reverse on the obstruction, the travel needs to be adjusted (refer to Program the Travel).

Repeat the test. When the door reverses upon contact with the 1-1/2 inch (3.8 cm) board, remove the board and open/close the door 3 or 4 times to test the adjustment.

If the test continues to fail, call a trained door systems technician.

TEST THE PROTECTOR SYSTEM

1. Open the door. Place an obstruction in the path of the door.
2. Press the remote control push button to close the door. The door will not move more than an inch (2.5 cm), and the garage door opener lights will fl ash 10 times.

The garage door opener will not close from a remote control if the LED in either safety reversing sensor is off (alerting you to the fact that the sensor is misaligned or obstructed).

If the garage door opener closes the door when the safety reversing sensor is obstructed (and the sensors are no more than 6 inches [15 cm] above the floor), call for a trained door systems technician.
