To ensure safety before beginning any work on the garage door opener, disconnect its electrical power. You can do this by either unplugging the garage door opener directly from the ceiling outlet or by turning off the corresponding house circuit breaker at your home's electrical panel. If using the circuit breaker, ensure you know which breaker controls the garage opener and test that power is off after flipping it.
