Genie (Authentic) GSTB-R (STB-BL) Safe-T-Beam Replacement Kit, Safety Beams, Includes Sender & Receiver(GSTB-R), One Size, Black

During a recent electrical storm, a close lightning strike took out a few electronic devices in and around our home. One thing I noticed was that my Genie garage door opener was no longer functioning. The light would come on but the door would not go up or down. I checked the little LED lights, located on the Safe-T-Beam sensors by the garage door, and noticed that the red LED was blinking in a reoccurring pattern. I went to the Genie website and checked their support page. I was delighted to find a useful troubleshooting guide, which utilizes the LED lights on the Safe-T-Beam sensors to diagnose potential problems with your Genie garage door opener. This handy troubleshooting guide can be found here: [...] The guide helped me determine that my opener motor and electronics were OK but one or both of my Safe-T-Beam sensors were bad and needed to be replaced. I almost purchased the replacement kit from the Genie website but decided to check Amazon.com first. I'm glad I did, as I found the exact same kit at a much lower price. The Genie 34094R Garage Door Opener Replacement Safe-T-Beam Kit is the same as the previous 35048R kit, and is the perfect replacement for every Genie garage door opener that utilizes the Safe-T-Beam sensors (all models manufactured from 1995 to current). This easy to install replacement kit includes the following items: - Both Infrared eyes/sensors (one with Red LED and one with Green LED) - Two Safe-T-Beam sensor mounting brackets - Bell wire for connecting sensors to opener unit (approx. 100 ft. of wire included) - Mounting hardware (screws, washers & nuts) for brackets and sensors - Installation instructions I did not need to replace the wire, as my previous wires were still in great shape. I found that I was not able to use my existing sensor mounting brackets, as the new Safe-T-Beam sensors had a slightly different mounting method. Luckily the 34094R kit comes with new mounting brackets (and everything else you would possibly need to install the new sensors). The installation instructions are very easy to read and understand, and provide several illustrations to help make the process simple. I had the new sensors installed in about 20 minutes and my Genie garage door opener was working perfectly once again. The 34094R Safe-T-Beam replacement kit is a genuine Genie service item and contains everything needed to replace the Safe-T-Beam sensors on all Genie garage door openers manufacturer on or after 1995. It is easy to install and works flawlessly. The cost is very reasonable and I highly recommend this product to anyone with a Genie opener that needs one or both Safe-T-Beam sensors replaced.

Perfect replacement for my Overhead Door Odyssey 1000 sensors. I just slipped the old (malfunctioning) transmitter off the bracket, switched over the wires to the new transmitter, and slipped the new one back onto the old bracket. As soon as it lined up with the other sensor, the red indicator light stopped flashing and the door now works perfectly. A simple 5 minute repair. This is an OEM (Genie) part, sealed and new in package.

Very simple and easy to install. Attach wires, screw into place, and viola, garage door works properly again.

This is an OEM replacement for all Genie brand garage door openers built since 1993. One reviewer ranked this with a single star as he stated what he received was not as represented in the photo. I cannot say whether or not this was true, but I can say that what I received was exactly what was represented by the photo in the listing. I simply unscrewed the inoperative safety beams (photo sensors), disconnected the wiring, used the same screws and the same screw holes in the replacement units, reconnected the wiring, and immediately had a properly operating garage door opener. I should also note that this is a newer design than the defective ones I replaced. They are physically different and actually feel more substantial than the units these replaced. Also, they use philips head screw terminals rather than the less reliable push-in connections on the old units. They have a self diagnosis code that tells you if something is amiss. I cannot review that feature as they worked instantly after installation. Lastly, this is a very, very easy DIY project. Took me all of 10 minutes to do the job, and since where I live, today the temperature outside is below zero and I had to have the door open to get enough light to work in, that was a very welcome bonus. If you know which end of a philips head screwdriver fits in the screw terminals, you have the necessary skills to do the job. Incidentally, if your overhead door will go up, but will only go down if you hold the button down on the wired controller continuously for the door to close, most likely the safety beams, or their wiring, is the problem. Don't use the remote controls to try this...they won't close the door no matter what. That's a safety feature. Very, very happy. Good price, quality product, fast delivery.

Works great would highly recommend

Old (20+ years?) photo-beam sensors stopped working, so door did not operate properly. Replaced with these--install was simple, remove old sensors/brackets, install new brackets/sensors, connect 2 wires to each, and operation of doors resumed as originally designed.

Arrived overnight. Decent instructions. Took at most 10 minutes a side. VERY easy. Both the RED (send) and the GREEN (receive) sides should have their LED illuminated with NO flashing. PRO TIP: If the motor/drive unit continues to have RED warning LED and will not operate, you may be able to reset the entire unit, by resetting both the up and down limits.

These replace the old square box Genie sensors. I had to cut off the click-in connectors and stripped wires to connect to new sensors. In order to make it work, I had to split and cross connect individual wires from each side to both metal screws (see 2nd pic). Do not twist 2 wires from one side together and connect to one screw. That didn't work for me and I almost returned sensors. Try both ways and see which way works for you. Now I don't have to make my son hold down button on the wall until the garage door closes all the way down then exit side door. The remote control didn't work to close door before installing new sensors either. Now everything's been working for a few weeks. Save me a couple hundred dollars for not calling garage door service guy.

Tenia la inquietud si seria compatible con mi Genie de la década pasada, pero sin duda funciona a la perfección. El anterior sistema se daño por descuido mío y era el que se ocupaba fuera polarizado +/- Este nuevo no ocupa polarización al conectar y tenia la duda. Lo recomiendo

I avoided cheaper imitation sensors and gladly bought this official Genie door sensor pair for replacement. My Genie has been in use for about 10 years and last 12 months the door would not close unless it was dark out. Clearly the sensors had worn out and became too light sensitive. I spent 30 minutes replacing them using the existing brackets and wiring. Voila, my door now opens and closes every time, dark and bright sunshine. Nice quality and simple to do. Well worth the little extra cost for original Genie product.

Los instalé y oriente de forma muy rápida y sencilla.

Foremost I'm mostly happy to see this being offered as a part that you can purchase. My garage door had been not able to close and had on and off issues working. Tried all the troubleshooting to ensure that the sensors weren't accidentally being triggered by the sun or something in the door or just shifted so they werent pointing at each other. Ultimately, saw the error code flash up on the motor unit. After reviewing it on a manual, decided to replace the sensors. Replacement was easy and trouble free. Worst part was just having to work in a corner of the garage that is infested with spiders and other large insects. Anyways, after installing, the garage worked well once again. I will hope that these last long. The last set of sensors which came with the unit lasted atleast 7 or 8 years before they went haywire so I'm expecting similar performance with these as these felt actually a bit more substantial than the original ones. Regardless, great to see replacement parts available on Amazon and it was an easy repair that resolved my issue. So overall can definitely recommend this for anyone looking for replacement sensors.

Excelente producto, tal cual lo necesitaba y fácil de instalar
