I have a Craftsman garage door opener Model 139.53990D. We had a lightning storm and the next morning the door went up when I pushed the inside button on the wall, but door would not go down when I pushed the button on my remote or the wall. When I push either the wall button or remote button I can hear a clicking sound at the opener, but nothing happens. The lights on the opener work fine. The wall button which has a light is on and the the wall button will turn on and off the lights on the garage door opener. Is this thing shot or is there something that I can do with it?
Check to see if the trolley (the part that slides back and forth on the rail and is connected to the door) is jammed against the bolt just in front of the motor unit. If so, remove the bolt and run the door until it is closed. On the side of the motor unit there is an 'up limit' control. Turn this 3 turns in the opposite direction of the arrow printed on the cover. Be sure to replace the bolt.
