Genie 38875R2.S Circuit Board Assembly with Wall Console
The Genie 38875R2.S is a model-specific replacement board kit for select Genie DC garage door openers using the R2 control platform. It includes the control board and a Series II wall console used during the board update. The board coordinates the opener motor, travel/limit memory, Safe-T-Beam circuit, radio receiver functions, and wall-control features. Because Genie used similar board housings across 1000, 1200, and 1500 class openers, choosing the correct R suffix is the most important fitment step. An R2 board is commonly tied to certain higher-output screw-drive models, and it should not be swapped into R1, R3, or R4 applications unless the official parts documentation supports the substitution. Correct setup after installation is just as important as selecting the right board.

Technician Note
If the opener previously used a Series III or different wall console style, follow the board-kit instructions exactly. Incorrect wall console wiring can cause feature issues even if the new board powers up.
Before Ordering Checklist
- Confirm the opener model number and horsepower/class markings
- Match the original board part number or suffix to the R2 family
- Inspect motor and encoder harnesses before removing the old board
- Label wall console and Safe-T-Beam wires before disconnecting them
- Run a full open-close cycle and safety reversal test after setup
Professional Advisory
Garage door openers contain line voltage and moving-door hazards. Disconnect power before service and use a qualified technician when wiring damage, burned board traces, or unsafe door movement is present.
Product Questions
Which models commonly use the 38875R2.S board?
It is commonly associated with select Genie DC screw-drive models such as the 4062 and 4064 families, when the original board and parts diagram match.
Is 38875R2.S the same as 38875R1.S?
No. R1 and R2 are different configured board families. They should not be interchanged without exact Genie parts confirmation.
Why is the wall console included?
Some replacement board kits require the included Series II wall console so the updated board and wall-control features operate correctly.
What must be reset after installation?
Travel limits, force/speed behavior as directed by the manual, wall console features, remotes, keypads, and other accessories should be checked and programmed as needed.
Can this board fix a no-power opener?
Only if the board is the failed part. Outlet power, transformer output, harnesses, and visible electrical damage should be checked before replacing the board.
