Non-functioning Liftmaster 3280m

My garage door opener has become totally non-functional - won't open/close when using either the wall mounted controller or the remote unit. On the wall controller, the light behing the open/close switch cover is no longer illuminated and none of the funtions work. Another garage door opener on the same electrical circuit is functioning perfectly. Both units were professionally installed about 4 months ago. Is there a built in fuse or circuit breaker that I can reset? Any other recommendations?
