There are generally only two wires going from motor to receiver. The receiver itself is held in place by one screw to the motor box.(Depends on the brand of the motor.)The remotes have a battery and you may need to unscrew a plate to access/replace the batteries and set the code. The only real trick in this is being sure that you set the code switches on the remote exactly the same way they are set on the receiver.(My experience was that after I purchased the multicode, it turned out that I needed to replace the circuit board (which was impossible to find for a 25 yo motor) and I ended up returning the multicode and having a new motor installed c. $400 in central NJ.)

I have an old opener with a built in but no longer functional receiver. There were 3 screw connectors on the opener that I attached to the new receiver but it took a few tries to get the right screw terminal to the correct connection. In my case, the built in receiver was no longer functional.

No internal modifications needed. This jewel connects to the terminals that your wall switch is now. This is the wall switch that raises and lowers your door. The 2 wires there now will stay there and you add the 2 wires from the new controller to the terminals on the opener. It is a parallel connection.

There are three wires from the back of the receiver to the motor drive. #1 is green and may be a ground. There are an additional 3 wires running from the tabs on the front of the unit that go to the wall switch. The wall unit in our garage is also programmable and I really don't know what that's all about. I just swapped the new receiver for the old, and lucked out in that they were identical.

I received this item with a missing toggle switch on the upper left side of the receiver. I have contacted the seller for a replacement part and have heard nothing to the effect that it will be fixed.

There is not much involved to connect it... 2 wires to the wall wart (power supply) and 2 wires that go to the garage door opener itself and connect to its contacts for the receiver. I already had an external receiver so it was just a simple replacement, but you might have to find those contacts on you opener. The only thing that took me much time at all was programming the remotes for my two doors (the remotes I got were 3 button, able to work multiple devices).

From what I understand you can just replace what is missing. I believe you would have to use the connect button on all items to make sure everything is going though the same receiver. That is if I understood what manufacturer wrote. I believe if mouse is missing and replaced it, it would come with a receiver also, but I'm real sure on that.

NO I agree with Fred buy the complete unit. In my case mine was old enough that they were not the same. Just write the color coded wire order before you remove them. Very easy to change.

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

I may be misunderstanding you question, but there isn't a hole in the receiver. The original Cover Plate is removed and replaced with the cover plate. Then the thumb screw (big screw with knurled edge) screws into the new cover plate and there are (2) allen screws that screw down that rest on the top of the receiver.

If all remotes have the same code, only one receiver would be required. If some of the remotes have different, non-changeable, codes then you should be able to program other receiver(s) to recognize the other codes. I would program each additional receiver separately, then hook/wire them all in parallel to the opener.

I have a 15 year old Liftmaster opener and the remotes stopped activating the opener. I bought 535LM receiver and wired it per the directions and it works just fine. I mounted it by the door, so now i have two places with "push button control" and the receiver is closer to the outside wall which improves the reception from my HomeLink car transmitter. Be sure to by the transformer (they should package it with the receiver as most installations require the transformer).

I am not familiar with your opener, but if it has 12 "dip switches" in it and it is more than 20 years old, this is worth investigating further.

It's stupid.. Was there a resistor in your original unit (there was in mine). If so, you have to solder it in series with the wire that goes from one side of the unit to the other. Just look at the wiring diagram. Since I can't open mine and don't have the instructions, you just have to follow the diagram. Sorry I can't help more.

What screws you talking about? I have one remote control which the sound mute button pop out and lost. Because of that I bought another one. If you email me your address I am going to send you my old one you could use it as spare parts.

hi! i dont' want to presume that you are new but if you are, welcome to the hobby! its addictive.I suspect I know what the problem is. The receiver (where you put your binding pin) has a series of switches where you can select 1, 2 or three. If those are misadjusted that could cause the problem you are describing. Please tell me what transmitter you are using and send me a picture of the receiver switches martinjberger@gmail.com

I would recommend calling the company to ask. I only have one opener in use.

This comes with the receiver. So you will have to drop the fan install the reciever that is included with this. I just purchased one a month ago and did the same thing.

Unfortunately the replacement receiver does not come with instructions for pairing. I have the instructions for my receiver and collar set though. So I'll list the steps below.Step one: make sure both receiver and remote are on.Step two: remove screw on receiver, you will see a small hole. The reset button is inside.Step three: gently poke the reset hole with a clip, pin, or similar object, the red LED will blink on the receiver. Proceed with next step within five seconds of pressing reset.Step four: press V1( or V2 depending on which side of the remote you would like to pair the receiver to). The receiver should respond with a solid LED light and vibrate.And that's it! Good luck and happy training. Unfortunately the replacement receiver does not come with instructions for pairing.
