Have you checked the tracks are clean ? A spray with some lubricant
may not
be a bad idea. I assume it wasnt used much during the lockdown, it may
well have gummed up. A bit of lube and a few manual open / close
cycles may
help.

no I took the mustang up and down the car park out front every other
day'''''

(I assume you have a handle to wind it open by hand.)

it's on the outside....

just went out and sprayed the tracks with wd40 and it opened so I took
the car out put the door back down thinking I could cancel the
man...came back wouldn't go up on the remote......went inside gave the
door a rattle and pushed the button on the unit it went up ...seems to
be some kind of intermitant so not cancelling the man...and it's not a
faulty rmote either...

I'll go and do a video right now.....probably work ok if I do
