If the light blinks several times after the reopening of the door, be sure that there is some blocking in the sensor or there is misalignment. Both the sensors are fixed onto the door track around 6 inches from the ground. Try to move them by your hand or fix them lined up. There may be other problems like in the case of broken cable, track which is bent, problems with springs and pulley etc. In these cases, replacement of parts is necessary, and it can be done only by a qualified operator.
