Did you remove the plastic cover on the motor to see if the belt inside is connected to the gear plate? There is an allen screw that can come loose and disengage the belt. When this happens, the motor will run, but the chain will not move. If you operate the door too often, the motor will overheat and stop working until it cools down. Also, have you inspected the large torsion springs to see if one of the two may be broken? If so, there will be a separation visible somewhere along the spring. The door may still operate with one broken spring, but it will put strain on the motor.

Very simple fix when you pull the disconnect you will see a lever come down it does not always or even sometimes snap back in place. mess with the rope to pull the lever back to the original position then you just cycle the garage door and it will click in

I had a similar issue. YouTube videos were a waste of time. I ultimately found that there were two levers on top of the opener and (from the back of the opener looking forward) the lever on the right was moved toward the gear. I rotated it toward the door, plugged the opener back in and it worked. But this is dangerous. You have to be on a ladder holding a flashlight and the top of the opener is close to the ceiling making it tough to see. Also, always make sure the opener is disconnected from power before you work on it.

Try resetting the circuit breaker! Flip the breaker to OFF then back to ON. Then see if door opens!

Be sure that nothing is blocking the sensors and be sure that the sensors are properly aligned
