Something I've planned on doing for a while & finally got around to it.
My door is a Hormann type & had a spare controller so all I needed was the OEM button.
The part number for this is 997.613.227.02.A05
I then soldered wires on to the pins 1, 2, & 4.
4 being the common,
2 is the switch
1 being the illumination for the LED.
The other ends I piggybacked on to the PCB of the original controller, & used a hot glue gun to secure.
4 being "Y" spliced between the negative of the button & LED on the Hormann controller.
2 going to the other side of the button
& 1 going to the +v on the LED.
The wires in the pictures are coloured to differentiate only, & used for metering. I soldered the 8 tails on to the PCB & switch first & simply joined them at a later time once I figured out which went where.
Afterwards, I managed to modify the original case with the trusty soldering iron to allow the wires to pass externally to the OE button.
The whole thing tucks in perfectly above the drivers side roof lining & obviously the switch fits in place of the blank.
Its a bit crude, but when tucked away, it looks completely OEM & saves having a garage controller rattling around in the car.
Hope this little DIY is of help so someone.
