Why a garage door remote won't close the door but the wall button does

If the wall-mounted button closes the door fine and only the handheld remote fails, the problem sits in the remote itself or in the receiver antenna inside the opener head — not in the sensors or the door hardware. Weak batteries, a remote that's lost its programming, or interference from another device on the same frequency can all produce that exact split.
