How To Repair A Garage
Door Opener
• The opener makes a grinding noise but the door doesn’t move
• When the opener makes some noise, as if the door is opening, but it does
not, the main drive gear may be defective and need replacement.
• The garage door refuses to open in the winter

winter. This is because the rollers get stiff. You will need to adjust the
sensitivity of the opener and lubricate the rollers.

• Where the door spring back immediately after touching the floor, the
close-limit switch could be faulty. The close-limit adjustment screw needs
to be adjusted.

the switch and the switch wires are defective. You need to check which of
the two is defective and replace it.
