Garage Door Stuck and Open By Itself

Have the dreaded garage door issues lately.

#1) Everyday when I open the garage door from wall switch to head out, the garage door opens 20% and then stays stuck. Then I have to open and close a couple times before the entire door fully opens.

#2) When coming home, the remote control needs to be pressed like 30 times before it makes a connection to open the door. I've replaced the batteries, so I've isolated that out.

#3) Garage door suddenly opens middle of night (luckily nothing of valuable inside)


I've cleaned the door sensors, adjusted the travel tensions. Is it time to replace the damn motor unit entirely? It is 21 years old.
