There are several common reasons why a garage door may not operate correctly: **Safety Sensor Issues:** The photo-eye sensors at the bottom of the door frame may be misaligned, dirty, or malfunctioning. Check for obstructions and clean the sensor lenses. **Remote or Keypad Problems:** Dead batteries, programming issues, or interference can prevent your opener from receiving signals. Try replacing batteries first. **Broken Springs:** If you hear a loud bang and the door won't lift (or feels extremely heavy manually), you likely have a broken spring. This requires professional repair—do not attempt to fix springs yourself. **Track Misalignment:** Bent or misaligned tracks can prevent smooth operation. Look for gaps between the rollers and track rails. **Opener Motor Issues:** The opener motor may be burned out, have worn gears, or experience electrical problems. **Cable Problems:** Frayed or broken cables can prevent the door from opening or cause it to hang unevenly.
