With a jumper wire soldered across the button, the opener will work once it is energized. The lead from the positive terminal of the door opener goes to the blue lead (high beam) and the lead from the negative terminal goes to the black lead (ground) in the wiring loom. The blue wire only energizes when you hit the high beams. This will complete the circuit and activate the opener.
Got it! But is your gdo being triggered constantly when the high beams are on?
No, the garage door opener is designed to only operate for 3 seconds when energized. So, turn on high beams, the garage door opener is triggered and 3 seconds later it de-energizes itself and will only re-energize when you turn off the high beams and then turn them back on.
Thank you so much for your explanations (and your patience)! I'm going to look into this ASAP.
Where's the fun in that? Plus I don't always wear the same gear and would rather have an integrated solution.
Damn!
Wouldn't that be awesome!!!! At least until somebody was able to open my garage door. lol
