About a month ago my garage door opener stopped working. I just recently noticed that when I shut my truck off it works. This leads me to believe that something is no longer shielded and is blocking the signal from my opener. I have done nothing, no add-ons, no ner stereo, nothing. What should I look at first? It's a PIA to shut off the truck when I back out of the garage, then shut it down again when I get home to open the door. Any ideas are greatly appreciated! Oh if it matters 94 with stock stereo, stock everything else. PIAA Fog lights, everything else stock.
What should I check first?

Have any of your neighbors started wearing tin foil hats lately? Seriously, have you tried a new battery in the transmitter? John

I have changed the battery in the opener, that was the first thing I did. The door opens and closes great when I turn the truck off, when it's running I can't open or close the garage door. For what it's worth it's a craftsman garage door opener. As for where it's mounted, it had been on the visor but I have waved it around, held it out the window, tried high and low, the only way it works is when I turn off the truck. I have noticed a wierd static on the radio as well, but only certain stations, others come in just fine. I have an aftermarket antenna, could that be the issue?
