hi check that the door is free from stifness

If these problems started immediately after a lightning storm, the printed circuit board is probably damaged. Contact a garage door service company (check the phonebook) for diagnostic support.

Hi...go to this website to identify your part. LiftMaster 1265LM Security Plus Garage Door Opener Parts

http://support.liftmaster.com/articles/How_To/LiftMaster-receiver-and-remote-compatibility-1484145638635 I don't believe a universal remote will work. Here is a link to compatibility

It will only take a 4 digit program code. After you program the code, and then enter that code to open the door, hit an additional number on the keypad. Some need the additional digit to act like an 'enter' key.

Disconnect power to the opener! Then, with a dental tool or small screwdriver scrape off any corrosion etc from the contact in the center of the socket. Also note if it is lying flat against the bottom of the socket. If so, gently lift the center so it has some spring retention and rises up off the flat bottom of the socket.

Check alignment of the obstruction sensors .... they shoot a light beam across the doorway about 6 inches above the floor. One is mounted on each side of the door track near the floor.

This sounds like a similar problem that I had. The circuit board on the garage door motor has a capacitor that goes bad and this prevents the remotes from working. You can either buy a replacement circuit board online (for around $80 if I remember) or if you can solder, simply replace the capacitor for a few dollars. I answered a similar question on this site before after I went through the process. There are more details there. The capacitor in question was close to a heat producing component and over time it cooks.

Try this first before calling a repair company. When the door is finished moving and it is open release the handle that disengages the door from the actuator and then close the door by hand. then re engage the handle and operate the door. If everything works fine after that, there is no need to call for a repair.

SORRY BUT THE GUY WHO GOT RID OF IT HAD THE RIGHT IDEA.
I DOUBT YOU CAN FIND A REMOTE AND IF IT HUMMS IT IS A POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD.
SORRY I CAN'T GIVE YOU GOOD NEWS
