    Door opener wont move, buzzes, drive gear ok

    I replaced the capacitor ($13), & if worked good, there was no bulging or telltale signs on the old one. Now if I can find the limit screw to the light that stays on, would be perfect.

    How do you trick a garage door chain to the close position?

I looked up the part...
