Hi there, I've inherited BFT electric gates on my house and this morning they wouldn't open. Hasn't rained, fob seems ok (lights up as usual) but when I opened up the control unit I can see it says STOP. Any ideas? Attached is a photos. Really can't afford to be calling someone out so hoping I can fix. Thanks!

Turn it off and back on again....failing that have the the sensors been knocked out of line somehow?

Im no gate expert just thinking of the basics.
 
Thanks. I tried that. Switched it off and back again. Sensors look ok and don't think anything hit them, etc. As far as I know nothing has changed since they last worked.
 
Probably best to ask again in home automation, theres some clever people over there who might not look in general discussion.
