Manual garage door won t stay all the way up.
On the main console the box that hangs from the ceiling you ll see a few different nobs and or buttons.

As the garage door motor lifts the door it pushes against the limit switch in blue in the diagram causing the motor to cut out at the correct height.
To check the balance pull the emergency release cord or chain to disconnect the door.
From here lift the garage door by hand about 3 feet above the ground and then release the door and see were it lands.

Ideally the door should slowly float up from this point.
You should now be able to move the door up and down by hand.
Release your hold on the door and see if it stays up all the way.
Move the limit switch to try and solve this issue.
