An external receiver changes the opener's control path and may require electrical work.
The detail that controls fit
No exact receiver-to-opener part pair has been verified in the current data. Consult the opener manual and a qualified installer before changing wiring.
A practical next step
Write down the full opener or accessory model number from its label. Use the linked manufacturer documentation to match the exact replacement part. If a safety part or wiring is involved, bring that information to a trained technician.
Evidence status
Only the facts identified above are supported by the current source set. Missing model-to-part pairs remain unknown.
A receiver changes more than the remote
An external receiver may add a control path to an older opener, but it also introduces power, wiring and safety questions. The current source package has no verified receiver part number for a named opener model. Record the motor-unit model, installed receiver and safety-beam configuration, then ask the manufacturer or a qualified installer which approved kit applies. A generic “works at 390 MHz” claim is not enough.
