More about this in Porter

A garage door opener not working means the button gets pressed and nothing happens, or the motor hums or clicks without moving the door — while the door itself still lifts and lowers just fine by hand. That distinction is the whole diagnosis: the fault sits in the opener's motor, logic board, wall control or remote, not in the door, spring or track. The overview of garage door company Porter is the place to start if the problem is unclear.

Call (346) 220-4724 and describe exactly what the opener does when the button is pressed.

Garage door opener not working — what the symptom tells you

A hum with no movement usually points to a seized motor or a failing capacitor. Complete silence points toward the outlet, a tripped breaker or a dead logic board. A door that runs partway and then quits is a travel-limit or sensor problem rather than the motor itself, and each of these leads to a different repair.
