garage door

[lend]

would any one know if one of the safety eyes on the garage door opener lens is fogged up would that hinder the door from coming down. when I hit the wall switch I have to hold it until the door isclosed. If i let go the door stops and goes back up.I checked the alignment and that seems alright, but there is fog on the inside of the one that has the green light in it which is not lit. Its a sears opener.
Thanks

yup, the fogged surface disperses the infrared

Hmm never heard that the infrared could be dispersed by a fogged surface?

Yes it does get dispersed, I had to help out my neighbor on that many times
