If the door closes with a loud bang just before it stops working, the door most likely has a busted spring. As stated earlier if your garage door can not be operated manually with the opener separated, then that also may be caused by a busted garage door spring. There are 2 primary sorts of garage door springs. They are extension springs and torsion springs. If you have a spring that is attached to your door along the straight part of its track, that is an extension spring. It may be possible for a resident to change an extension spring.
