How do I connect it to my existing wall button (which is also a radio receiver but remotes are dying)?

You need to take off your old receiver and install the 2 wires to either the pushbutton or on the motor where the wall button wires connect .I would hook it to the motor

Follow the instructions in this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ETUB7YPtsIk (same as Peter's instruction).If the push button on the old combination receiver/wall button is good, everything should work.If the push button on the old combo unit is bad, it can be replaced with a simple door bell push button.

You have to use the "Learn" button on the 365LM. Follow the instructions that came with the 365LM or the instructions that came with the original opener. The procedure is basically the same for adding a wireless keypad.

The receiver has prongs which plug directly into an outlet. The receiver also has two terminals that need to be connected to the 2 wires that go to the wall button. You have two options - connect them at the button itself, or, connect them at the garage door opener, which is where those two button wires go. Either way leave the wall button connected, just add the receiver across (in parallel with) the button

No, the receiver connects to the existing wall button or directly to the lift motor. Pressing the remote button causes the two wires coming from the 365LM to short together. This simulates pressing the button on the wall. I hope this helps. TimJ

I bought an extra transmitter, so I have the receiver (installed in the Wall), plus two transmitters. They all seem to work together. However I had to buy a whole second switch set--I could not find any where to buy just a transmitter.

Come with 2 Button type LR44. Should be able to buy them at Radio Shack. There should be no reason to replace them unless you lose house power for a couple of days. Darn good unit. Just program it step by step.

Mine did not work when I bought my house. A 2 wire Door Bell Push Buttonwill work to open and close it. In order to get the remores to work I needed to get a new Wall Mount Super Station so the new remotes I bought once programmed could be programmed to match the Door Opener.. Not expensive. I bought 2 remotes and 1 Super Station for approx $50 on line. Not a difficult task if you follow the instructions sent with the Super Station.

I use a remote control outlet, when I push a button on the remote it activates it. You can get a remote outlet on E-Bay

Yes, you would need to replace the other switch as well. Also, this switch uses IR and not RF for remote control, so line of sight is required.

the remote was missing when I bought my house and this worked great...it will work with it's own receiver which is included...just plug it in and hook up a couple of wires...I put in an entirely new garage opener and have one of these that I would sell...plantstation1@yahoo.com

Sounds like the receiver and the remote are not communicating.Sorry I can not help...

I think the original question was asking how you connect the receiver to the device you're trying to control...Does it come with connection hardware? Or did you solder it or did you use those wire connector cones?

First insure the wires are connected correctly. Make sure you have good batteries in the remote, if that doesn't work move it manually with the buttons on the box. If these don't work send it back for a new one.

If this has the same receiver as this hand held devise, your good to go. I bought another, just the remote by itself, just to have an extra remote and it works fine. You have to pair the new remote thats all.

You may have to buy another radio, if your current one does not have a RCA input/output

Yeah all you will need to do is press that button then hit the button on the new remote. That will sync the two.

If you are using the remote press the receiver button before changing the input source and see it that helps. It works for me.

I don't think so, but it may. The instructions recommend that you remove all existing buttons and use the ones supplied with the new unit. The wall control that comes with it is pretty sophisticated with a sensor eye and several buttons on it. It does only have two screws to attach the wires, so it is possible an ordinary button would work. It also comes with the keypad and two remotes that are quite small, so you may be able to just use one of those instead of an ordinary doorbell button. Sorry, I can't say for sure. You can probably ask Chamberlain Tech Support.
