Garage door opener just clicks when trying to open/close it

Door is model # 139.53965srt. It just clicks when opening. It opened fine when i got home from work...tried to close and it failed. Springs along rails look ok. I tried re-programming the remote. There's a little yellow flashing light in the back panel. In manual mode - door opens/closes fine - Not binding or anything.

We will need a little more info to answer this question.

Does it not open or close or both?

Does the light bulb flash on and off when you press the remote?

Does the motor run when you press the button and the chain move but not the door?

Does the motor run when you press the button and the chain stand still?

Can you press and hold the wall station to make the door work but not from the remotes or keypad?

The light on the keypad, is it solid or blinking?

The sensors, do they both have led lights, and are they on, what colors are they?

Please test these theories out and resubmit for a accurate answer. Thanks BB

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.
