Total silence at the button almost always traces back to the opener — power, the logic board, or a motor that's stopped responding. A door that lifts a few inches and then stops, or drops back down, is usually mechanical: a broken or weakened spring that's left the opener trying to lift more weight than it's rated for, or a bind somewhere in the track. Pulling the manual release cord and trying to lift the door by hand is the fastest way to tell which side of that split you're on — a door that's heavy or won't budge by hand points to the spring, not the opener.
