What we see on Ghost Controls gates in Kemp
A Ghost Controls opener runs entirely on its battery, and at a Kemp weekend house that battery may sit for weeks between uses. Lead-acid batteries that are not cycled can sulfate, and a solar panel shaded by lake trees or covered in pollen may not keep them topped up. When the owner arrives, the gate is slow, stops partway or ignores the remote. Insects nesting in the control box and humidity near the shoreline add corrosion to the list, and remotes with dead cells are common.
We test the battery under load and check the panel, then open the control box to clear insects and check for corrosion. Remotes and keypads are re-paired or replaced if needed. On TSS1 single and TDS2 dual swing openers, we also check arm gears and brackets. We can suggest small steps for weekend owners to keep the gate reliable. We work in Lakeside Acres, Pleasant Oak Beach and Tanglewood Beach.

Ghost Controls gate repair in Kemp: questions
Our Ghost Controls gate at our Kemp weekend house is dead every time we arrive. Why?
The battery is the likely cause. Left idle and undercharged, it loses capacity, especially if the panel is shaded or dirty. We test the battery and panel, replace a worn battery and re-site the panel if needed, so the gate is ready when you arrive.
Wasps built a nest in our Ghost Controls box in Kemp. Is the opener damaged?
Possibly. Insects can cause shorts and corrosion on the control board. We clear the nest, inspect and clean the board and terminals, and test the opener. If the board is damaged, we replace it. Sealing gaps in the box helps prevent a repeat.
