Silence at the button almost always traces back to power — a tripped breaker, a dead wall switch, an opener that's stopped responding entirely. A door that actually starts moving and then stalls or reverses is fighting something mechanical, most often a spring or cable that's no longer carrying its share of the door's weight.
