The door may be a little bit heavy for that opener, but that shouldn't cause the type of issue that you're having. I would have the electrical outlet checked to make sure the ground is good. Outside of that, there really isn't anything else that you can check. I would recommend you have a professional come out and take a look at the opener to see if they can determine what keeps causing your board failure.

This is a great place to go for advice, especially if you're low on funds and you could resolve the problem before calling and paying a service call, if it's an easy fix. I'm glad you are there for me.
