Why a garage door not working is rarely just one thing
A door that won't respond at all could be a dead opener, a tripped breaker, or a spring that let go and left the opener unable to lift the weight on its own. A door that starts moving and then stops is a different problem — usually a sensor, a bent track, or an opener sensing resistance it isn't set up to push through. Working through those possibilities in order, instead of guessing, is what keeps a simple fix from turning into a bigger one.
