    door - Overhead Garage door issue Empty Overhead Garage door issue

    Post  jwoz Sun Nov 01, 2020 12:16 pm

    Recently my garage door opener started making a weird sound.  After a few days the capacitor went out.  I purchased a new capacitor and replaced it only to have the new one go out after about 1 week.  

    Overhead door
    1/2 HP
    model # 696CD/B 

    At some point after the original capacitor started acting up , I might have turned up the open force on the door to see if that would help.

    Could this have been the reason why the new one failed?

    I purchased a capacitor with the same specks as my old one. 

    Any thoughts on this issue?

    Thanks
