Richard-you certainly have an interesting, if not entertaining family.
Today I noticed the opener light on my side wasn't working. Threw a new bulb in but still nothing.
Had power to the socket so I knew it wasn't anything bad. I ended up bending the metal tab in the bottom of the socket. I guess I've been turning the bulbs too far and smished it down. I've noticed that some of the newer LED bulbs don't fit well into older fixtures. I know they SHOULD but..
and yes I turned the juice off before working on it.
