The repair was simple: Removed the one bolt that holds the end of the screw up to the mounting hardware, removed the pin that connects the carrier arm to the carrier, removed the stop limit switch [since the wire was fastened to the ceiling] to allow room to move the worm gear to the side. It took a little pushing on it to get enough room between the wall and the worm gear to slide the old carrier off and to put the new one on. Once it was back on I reassembled it, raised the latch and it was ready to go.
The carriage threads were severely worn.
