IF MY GARAGE DOOR REMOTE IS NOT WORKING AS WELL AS IT ONCE DID, IS THERE A BATTERY IN IT THAT NEEDS TO BE REPLACE??
Usually not, take the bracket off of the door that the opener connect to and slide it back towards the opener while the door is being installed and then attach it to the new door. If the old door had extension springs that stretched down the track and the new door has a torsion spring that mounts above the door across the opening, the end of the opener track that mounts on the front wall of the garage may have to be moved up or down, most likely up so that the spring can be mounted. The spring has to go in a certain place and the opener can be adjusted.
Yes most home stores sell the universal garage door openers that can be programmed, or go to the website of the garage door brand.
Likely a broken spring

Some common garage door repair problems include the rollers, springs and motor. Rollers and springs will cost roughly $500 to replace. The biggest problems with garage door openers are misalignments. In particular chain drive systems are prone to failure when they get out of alignment.
You can if you are handy like that.Otherwise I would spring for the cost and hire a professional. It sounds like nothing major and you do not want to make it worse.
