I can manually open it and I don't feel excessive resistance at any point in the process, but with the opener it's a no go.
I've checked all the wheels, and none of them look to be even remotely binding..
I've checked the center track where the screw drive is....nothing..
I've checked the springs..nothing seems out of order....

Don't know what to check now.
This was happening to me a while back as well. It turned out that the top edge of the garage door was touching the trigger sensor when it went past it rather than missing it and having the follower hit it like intended. I just had to provide some additional clearance....aka hit it with a hammer. Works great now.
