Garage door not working — start with what the opener is doing

If the opener hums but the door doesn't move, that's usually a spring that's no longer carrying the door's weight, not a dead motor.

A door that moves partway and stops is often a track obstruction or a safety sensor reading it can't clear. Sorting out which of those it is before touching anything keeps a small problem from becoming a bigger one.
