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

In Spokane Valley, the weather is often part of the story behind a garage door sensor blinking. Months of sub-zero cold mean deep cold snaps springs and road salt corrodes hardware across Spokane County — exactly the kind of wear a local tech knows to check first.

What might be wrong

Here's what our local techs check first — and what each one usually means.
