When the handle is depressed, the electrical action opens door, but not completely. You have to depress handle and pull door open with some force. Sounds as though it is hanging on the latch?
Any one had this problem?
Thanks for the help

Yeah, sounds like the door is maybe sagging a big and dragging on the latch. You might check the hinges and see if you have any play there. Open the door and lift up on the back a bit and see if you can see any wiggle up in the hinge area. If it's still pretty tight you might just be able to readjust the striker/latch to move it a bit. You may be able to watch as you close it too to see where the latch is lining up with the striker.
