Default garage door opener

I had a garage door opener stop working (Overhood Door model 1055)...opening
the box to inspect and hitting the switch occasionally causes a clicking
noise, which I think is coming from the "Motor Starting Capacitor" ...could
this be the problem? It this like a selenoid or something?

Nah !! It's just a capacitor, I doubt if there would be any solenoids in
there. More likely you may be thinking of relays ?
A very high chance there is one of those. Also likely there are bad solder
joints on the cicuit board.
