The diagnostic sequence determines everything in Paw Paw. EZ Open performs the manual release test first on every won't-open call in Paw Paw, MI. The emergency release cord is pulled to disconnect the door from the opener trolley in Paw Paw. The door is manually lifted in Paw Paw, MI. If the door lifts easily and holds its position, the opener is the source of the problem in Paw Paw. If the door is very heavy or won't hold a raised position, the spring has failed and the opener symptom is a consequence of the spring failure in Paw Paw, MI. If the door won't move at all manually, the door is physically stuck from a cable failure, track obstruction, or off-track condition in Paw Paw. Three completely different repair paths determined by a thirty-second test in Paw Paw, MI. This test is why EZ Open doesn't replace the opener when the spring is the problem in Paw Paw.

The manual release cord disconnects the door from the opener trolley in Paw Paw, MI. With the trolley disconnected, the door can be manually lifted without the opener in Paw Paw. EZ Open performs this test before examining the opener, before examining the spring, and before examining anything else in Paw Paw, MI. The result of the manual lift immediately narrows the cause to one of three categories in Paw Paw. It takes thirty seconds and prevents misdiagnosis in Paw Paw, MI.
If the manual lift reveals a heavy door that won't hold its position, the spring system has failed in Paw Paw. EZ Open visually confirms the spring failure by inspecting the torsion spring for a visible gap in the coil in Paw Paw, MI. Both cables are assessed simultaneously for condition and drum seating in Paw Paw. If the spring is broken and a cable is also broken from the shock load, both are addressed together in Paw Paw, MI.
If the manual lift reveals a door that lifts easily and holds its position, the door hardware is functioning correctly in Paw Paw, MI. The opener is the source of the symptom in Paw Paw. EZ Open proceeds to the opener isolation sequence in Paw Paw, MI. Remote first. Wall button second. Trolley carriage connection third. Opener component assessment fourth in Paw Paw.
If the manual lift reveals a door that won't move at all, neither heavy nor light, just physically stopped, the door has a physical blockage in the travel path in Paw Paw. EZ Open assesses the track for obstructions, damage, and misalignment in Paw Paw, MI. Both cables are inspected for failure that may have caused the door to jam in the track in Paw Paw. Rollers are assessed for any that may have jumped the track channel in Paw Paw, MI.
The manual release test result determines which of three completely different repair paths applies in Paw Paw, MI. Door too heavy means spring repair in Paw Paw. Door lifts freely means opener assessment in Paw Paw, MI. Door won't move means physical blockage assessment in Paw Paw. Without this test, every won't-open situation looks the same from the outside in Paw Paw, MI. With it, the correct diagnostic path is established in thirty seconds in Paw Paw.
A broken torsion spring removes the counterbalancing force that makes the door movable by the opener in Paw Paw, MI. The opener provides 10 to 20 pounds of net lifting force against a counterbalanced door in Paw Paw. Without spring counterbalancing, the opener is trying to lift 150 to 400 pounds with 10 to 20 pounds of force in Paw Paw, MI. The manual release test reveals a heavy door that won't hold its position in Paw Paw. A visible gap in the torsion spring coil confirms the break in Paw Paw, MI.
A broken cable allows one side of the door to drop, tilting the door in the track in Paw Paw. The tilted door is physically jammed against the track walls and can't travel in either direction in Paw Paw, MI. The manual release test reveals a door that won't move at all in Paw Paw. Inspection finds a loose cable at the bottom corner of the lower side in Paw Paw, MI. Cable replacement and spring assessment are required in Paw Paw.
A failed opener component prevents the opener from producing the force needed to move the door in Paw Paw. The manual release test reveals a door that lifts easily and holds its position in Paw Paw, MI. The door hardware is functioning correctly in Paw Paw. The opener is the source of the symptom in Paw Paw, MI. Component assessment identifies the specific failed component in Paw Paw.
The emergency release cord disconnects the trolley carriage from the trolley in Paw Paw. If the carriage was disconnected and not reconnected, the opener runs the trolley along the rail while the carriage and door sit stationary in Paw Paw, MI. The door appears completely unopened and unresponsive in Paw Paw. The manual release test reveals a door that lifts easily because the carriage is already disconnected in Paw Paw, MI. Reconnecting the carriage to the trolley resolves the symptom immediately in Paw Paw. No component is damaged or failed in Paw Paw, MI.
A door that has come off its track has a roller outside the track channel creating a physical blockage in Paw Paw, MI. The door can't travel in either direction through the blockage in Paw Paw. The manual release test reveals a door that won't move at all in Paw Paw, MI. Visual inspection finds the roller or rollers outside the track channel in Paw Paw. Off-track repair with cause identification is required before the door can open correctly in Paw Paw, MI.
A dead remote battery produces a door that doesn't respond to the remote in Paw Paw, MI. The wall button will operate the door normally in Paw Paw. If the door opens with the wall button but not the remote, replace the remote battery before calling for service in Paw Paw, MI. A new battery resolves this in approximately two minutes in Paw Paw. If the door doesn't respond to either the remote or the wall button, the problem is in the opener or door hardware and a service call is warranted in Paw Paw, MI.
In cold climates, water from condensation or melting snow freezes at the contact point between the door's bottom seal and the garage floor overnight in Paw Paw. The frozen bond holds the door to the floor despite the opener providing its normal lifting force in Paw Paw, MI. The manual release test typically reveals a door that's very difficult to lift manually as the ice bond resists upward force in Paw Paw. Gentle heat application at the floor seal breaks the ice bond in most cases in Paw Paw, MI. Do not run the opener repeatedly against a frozen door in Paw Paw.
An object in the track, debris accumulation at a specific point, or a bent track section narrows the channel below the roller diameter in Paw Paw. The door opens to the obstruction point and stops in Paw Paw, MI. The manual release test may show the door lifting partially and then stopping at the obstruction in Paw Paw. Track clearing or track repair is required to restore full travel in Paw Paw, MI.
Before any other action, try the wall button inside the garage in Paw Paw, MI. If the wall button opens the door, the problem is with the remote rather than the door or opener in Paw Paw. Replace the remote battery first in Paw Paw, MI. If the wall button also produces no response, the problem is in the opener or door hardware and EZ Open's service is needed in Paw Paw.
Look at the opener trolley and the carriage bracket that connects to the door in Paw Paw. If the carriage hook is hanging freely rather than engaged in the trolley, the emergency release was pulled and not reconnected in Paw Paw, MI. Pull the red emergency release cord toward the door to re-engage the carriage in Paw Paw. If the door then opens with the opener, no repair was needed in Paw Paw, MI.
Look at the torsion spring on the shaft above the door opening in Paw Paw, MI. A broken spring has a visible gap in the otherwise continuous coil where the wire separated in Paw Paw. If a gap is visible, do not attempt to open the door in Paw Paw, MI. Call EZ Open for same-day broken spring repair in Paw Paw.
Running the opener repeatedly against a door that won't open risks stripping the drive gear in Paw Paw. Manually pulling a door that's jammed from a cable failure or off-track condition can damage the panel at the force application point in Paw Paw, MI.
