So my garage door opener was getting finicky, so I cleaned/lubed and tested the door and tracks, not making it much better.
So I opened up the unit, and found a seriously worn gear. Google says it's an extremely common problem, and the myriad of makes/models (mostly really made by Chamberlain) ALL use the same gear.
Found one on e-bay, should have been here today but no. And last night it quit entirely.
Anyone know where I might find one locally? Didn't see anything online at Home Depot, Lowes etc.
