GE Keyless Garage Door Function

[ClayW]

I did a relatively quick project today that utilizes the trunk pop function on the GE Keyless Entry system.

I opened my garage door opener.



Then I soldered in wires to each side of the button and zip-tied them to the body of the opener.





I wired up a simple relay and wired it into the red/black wire of the GE Keyless Entry board.





Final Result:

Voila! No more fumbling for the garage door remote controller.

That's pretty creative...I like it! The garage remote still gets power from the coin battery right?

Correct. Also, the car must be in range of the garage for it to work, so I have to use a different opener if the E30 is gone but I'm at the house. But, let's get serious; when is that scenario going to happen?
