So what do you rat packers do for a living?

if it's just the switch and it works fine with the remote, idds are that it's either 1. the connections, 2. the wire or 3. the switch itself.

get up on a ladder and make sure the screws that mount thne wire to the back of the box are not loose. don't need to get crazy, just make sure they're snug.

inspect the wire for dings or nicks. especially anywhere it makes a tight bend.

usually the switch has screw terminals for the wire on the back.

if the switch is actually bad you could replace it with a doorbell switch if the hardware store doesn't have replacement door switches.

i just replaced my GDO switch with one that has a motion sensor. saves me from needing to turn on the light when i go out to get the dog's food. the switch sees movement and turns the light in the GDO on.

not a door pro, but studied electronics in HS and college until i got bored with the math. and like the screen name suggests i'm usually good at fixing stuff. (tho there's a stack of other reasons for the name)

My first thought was to just replace the switch, which is probably what I'll end up doing. The local huge hardware store doesn't carry the brand I need but I can't see how a different switch would make a difference (correct me if I am wrong).
