door does not move

I have a torsion Idrive and it has work great for about 4 years. Came one evening and the door would not open with the remote. The unit would beep twice, churp like a bird then nothing. I followed the troubleshooting guide in the manual, beep, beep, churp....still not working. Read the article about the fuse in the "Gear Hack" fourm. Checked the unit, had a blown fuse. Replaced the fuse with a slow blow fuse, tried the door, beep, beep, churp....nothing. Called Wayne Dalton (very nice people) and explain my problem. They sent me a new, updated circuit board. Replaced the circuit board with ease. Push the button, beep, beep, churp....nothing. Ma, git my shotgun, we're gonna git a new hole in the garage door wall. Before I blast it to mulch, maybe I'll check the motor. Anybody have an oopinion?

Is the springs still ok? We came home one night and the garage door won't move. Turn out to be old springs: one broke. Opener works fine after replacing the springs. Good luck.
