- This could indicate a weak battery. Replace the battery if necessary.
- Check for any loose wiring connections at the door operator's receiver end.
- Ensure the push button mechanism is not sticking or obstructed.
- Door Not Opening Fully/Closing Properly:
- This issue is typically related to the automatic door operator itself, not the actuator. Consult the door operator's manual for troubleshooting steps.
If problems persist after attempting these steps, contact LCN customer support or a qualified technician.
