A light that remains on may be behaving according to a control setting rather than indicating a failed motor. Note when it turns on and whether the door itself operates normally. The light function and door movement should be described separately.

Check the intended light behavior
Use the manual for your opener and wall station. Some controls operate the light independently of a door cycle. Avoid relying on a timer duration quoted for a different model, and do not open electrical housings to investigate.
Explain any additional symptoms
Mention flickering, a display change or loss of response from other controls. If you notice heat, burning odor or damaged electrical equipment, stop use and seek appropriate professional help. When there is no urgent condition, a clear account of the timing helps decide whether a setting review or repair visit is needed.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does a working light mean the motor is healthy?
No. It does not establish that the drive, controls or door assembly are functioning correctly.
Should I replace the whole wall station to turn the light off?
Check the intended function and exact fault before replacing parts. A setting may explain the behavior.
