My brother did overhead garage door install and repair for about 20 years. He will be the first one to tell you stop screwing with it. What might be a minor cost if you call right now could be a major cost of keeps screwing with it. He seen cases where have they called right away. It been the service call, a couple hundred dollars. Service call meaning trip charge.
Because they kept screwing with it it was a very large bill. If I remember right, the worst one was where he had to replace tracks, garage door opener, and I think there was even a panel he had to replace.
Another person said you can just track the tracks to see if there’s something in it but beyond that. I’d just called a professional.
