If a Chamberlain Miracle-One gate is not moving with the keypad or remote despite having power and good fuses, possible issues include:

1. The operator arm or gate is incorrectly installed.
2. An externally wired safety sensor has been triggered (e.g., photo beam blocked).
3. The gate is too heavy or obstructed by a foreign object.
4. Gate hinges are too tight, broken, or not moving freely.
5. The radio receiver LED on the control board remains "ON" — this could indicate a stuck remote or control board issue.

The learn/smart button on the Chamberlain garage door opener is typically located on the back or side of the opener unit, near the antenna wire or light cover.
