Wayne Dalton Torsion idrive Troubleshooting Questions and Answers

1. My iDrive Torsion will not respond to Wall Station or remotes and there is no audible feedback from operator. What can I check for?

Verify power at outlet, check the connection at the receptacle, check connection at operator. If iDrive has power and no audible beeps are heard Motor Control Board must be replaced.

2. When I press the button to open the door the iDrive chirps 5 times and overhead light flashes.

Operator is in vacation mode. Move the vacation switch located under the flip cover on the wall station down to lock and back up to unlock. Operator will beep once indication it is out of vacation mode.
