I've searched and searched and I can't find the answer to this question. I want to wire my garage door opener to open my garage door using my headlight/bright switch. I figured I could just tap the bright power wire and use a relay to simulate pushing the button. That's all fine, I flip the switch and the garage door opens. The problem is that when I leave the brights on driving down the road it leaves the opener "on". Can I use a DEI 528T to do the same thing but shut down after a few seconds? If so can someone tell me what wires on the 528T go to what.
I know with a regular relay it looks like:
85 - ground
86 - Tap into the high beam wire
30 - one of the leads from the opener
87 - to the other lead from the opener
What does it look like with the DEI unit, or any other ideas? Thanks in advance.

hi...

vehicle make, model, year...so as to figure how the high beams are powered

528 T wiring....red--battery, black--ground, BLACK/ white--high beam trigger in, yellow-to switch contact in opener, brown-other switch contact in opener, orange-not used.

turn the time down to minimum, you may have to cut the blue loop depending upon high beam wiring (positive or negative triggering)

hope this helps

Mark

Thanks for the reply. To answer your question, it's a '06 H3. I don't know much about these relay's. Will it do what I want it to do or do you suggest another route?
