Hey Ridin' if you get a free sec can you try to answer my question to what I'm wanting to do with a remote actuator? It's in the Teh ?'s section. Thanks!

If you guys want a really clean install, you can use your horn switch to activate the opener. Your neighbors will think you have some wacky horn operated garage door though.

^what model is that garage door opener? If I can find a schematic online I'd be better able to assist. Or better yet take a picture of both sides of the board with a better camera and I can do it that way.

its a lift master (from what i was told the same as chamberlain) the remote is a 953CHB

sorry my wife took the camera to AZ.

Depending on which switch is the garage button follow the schematic accordingly. These should be the correct leads from what I can tell from the photos. Just to be sure, once you solder the wires on there touch the other ends of the wires together (make sure your remote control battery is installed) and see if that opens/closes your garage.
