Your circuit board is going out. Just replaced both of mine.

I think it was 180 for both.

Issues just opening, or opening & closing?

Does your sensor get direct sunlight? On my last house I thought it was a heat issue as well until I had a “eureka moment” and discovered the sensor didn’t work if the sun was shining on it. A homemade shade fixed the issue.

Had the opposite problem where it seemed like it wouldn't work when it was cold outside but I adjusted the alignment of the sensors some and it seems to have helped.

That or it's just not cold anymore.

The spring on ours just blew up. It has been really hot.
