Sunlight on STB

[OldGrampa]

Genie screw drive H6000

Safe-T-Beam Green light is on OK
Red light - 3 flashes

But, if I shield the red light box from the sun,
the door closes ok.

Anyone know of somekind of sun shield for the box?


Tx for any comments.

Sunlight..use thick piece of paper

I have the same issue. I just took a thick piece of paper and wrapped it around the sensor once and taped it in place. It stuck out about 3 inches from the sensor and works fine.
