A blinking garage door sensor in Kansas City almost always means the two photo-eyes aren't seeing each other. It's usually a quick alignment or cleaning.

In Kansas City, the weather is often part of the story behind a garage door sensor blinking. Months of freezing winters mean cold snaps brittle springs and road salt corrodes hardware across Jackson County — exactly the kind of wear a local tech knows to check first.
