The light stays on for a long time although it shuts off (a lot more that 4.5 minutes). Can this be adjusted to be shortened? Where and how on the unit?

If you have one of the newer models the duration can be changed by holding in the lock button until the light blinks (about 10 seconds.) A single blink indicates that the timer is reset to 1½ minutes. Repeat the procedure and the light will blink twice, resetting the timer to 2½ minutes. Repeat again for a 3½ minute interval, etc. up to a maximum of four blinks and 4½ minutes.

If your opener has the motion sensor feature and a person enters the garage and walks in front of the door control the light will come on for 5 minutes and then shut off.

2005 Lincoln Aviator

On my 2004 Aviator, the indicator was lit all the time, and it did kill the battery if I didn't drive it every day. The dealer stated it should only remain lit for 20 minutes, and replaced the shift assembly. Sounds like they shortened the illumination time to 10 minutes.

How to adjust brakes on mongoose overide bike

You may need to shorten the brake cable by loosening the thumbscrew locknut, extending the adjuster and re-tightening the locknut. If there isn't enough adjustment, you'll have to shorten the cable by loosening its locknut, shorten the cable by about 1/4" at a time, and re-adjusting your thumbscrew adjustments until the brakes are effective. Also make sure your new shoes are lined up with the sides of the wheels and you may want to lightly sand the surface of the new shoes, just to roughen them a bit so that they seat faster.

Hope this will FixYa!!!
