It wasn't working (it would only go up about a foot), now it goes up and down...

I can't figure it out.

Does anybody know by chance?

Pm me your phone number and I'll help you. I use to sell garage doors and springs and crap.

...you have my phone # you smartass...

My soon to be Ex did something to it and I can't figure out what. I've got the feeling that it's going to burn my opener out though.

What broke is called a front torsion spring. You have 5 minutes because I'm leaving to go out. Your call.

Ask Greenbacks

He has a very high IQ

GB has 2 brain cells and they're fighting each other.

Btw who starts a thread asking for help then when someone offers help over the phone they don't accept it? People are weird.

When your front torsion spring breaks you have to get a new one. The spring is what holds 90% of the weight of your garage door. Normally when they break you're door will only go up about a foot like you said. In that case I would tell someone to pull the red handle string down which will release it and you can open and lower manually. Basically right now your opener is don't all the work and it will eventually burn out. Springs cost form $40-$60. I wouldn't reccomend doing it yourself unless your mechanically inclined. For someone to come out and change it should run about $150. So get someone to come out and change the spring. You're welcome.

Thank you.
I figured it's going to burn out, I just wasn't sure how it wasn't working before, but now it is. She must have done something
