A worn or stripped drive gear inside the opener produces grinding that originates at the motor unit and is present even when the door moves slowly or not at all in Bay St. Louis. A door with worn rollers or a track obstruction creating elevated resistance causes the opener to strain and produce sounds under the elevated load in Bay St. Louis, MS.

The manual release test reveals this as the cause when the door lifts easily with the carriage already disconnected in Bay St. Louis, MS.
