Legacy 496 CD/B not closing with remote
Hello,
My garage door will only close if I hold down the hard wired button inside the garage. My remote will open the door, but, will not close the door. (no sound from motor at all when remote is pushed to close door)
Thank you for any help.

Welcome to the forums.
That indicates a problem with the safety sensors.
One should be always lit..... the transmitter. Usually red.
The other should be lit when the beam is ok.... the receiver. Usually green.

Pete,
The transmitter is blinking red, ( two quick on/off with a slight pause)
The receiver is green.
I had cleaned both lenses and made sure nothing is blocking the beam prior to posting.
Do I need to replace these or could it possibly be wiring?

2 blink pause and repeat...... green LED on.
1 - Beam not aligned...... check alignment.
2 - Beam obstructed...... check for obstruction.
3 - Sensor bad....... call customer service/replace sensors.
