Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

When I ordered my wife's Macan I opted for the HomeLink system, which the sales guy did his best to try talk me out of. I knew it wouldn't work "out of the box", but figured it surely can't be that hard to get it working... turns out I was right. I found a 433MHz remote relay on Amazon for $20 and after 15 minutes of fiddling had it working with my garage door opener. That relay (and others like it) should work with any garage (or gate) opener that has a set of accessory input terminals. Mine's a Merlin MR655MYQ, but most openers have accessory inputs (for an external button in your garage for example.

Spot on. Doesn't work out of the box but takes very little time and money to get it working.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Bought another remote and got it working with my gate opener - so much better than mucking about with individual remotes.

POST 4Original post

Do you think you could retrofit a homelink system on a 987.1 Boxster fairly easily?
