The simple and relevant question before pursuing most of this is whether
the lock clicks when you present your card. The light is irrelevant;
on these readers, it will look pretty similar for a disallowed card,
but either the lock clicks open and you're experiencing a mechanical
issue with the door, or your card isn't being accepted and the lock
does not click open.
