Why a stuck garage door can mean four different things
A dead spring, a snapped cable, rollers jumped off the track, and a burned-out opener motor all leave a door sitting exactly where it stopped, with no obvious clue pointing to which one it is. Pulling the opener's manual release cord settles it fast — disconnect the opener, try the door by hand, and either it moves freely or it doesn't.
