I just want to put this on the Internet because when building this I couldn't find much resources on it. Maybe I was using the wrong keywords. Maybe I couldn't bought one for cheap but what's the fun in that?
So this basically tells you if your garage door is open. Red light = open, light off= door closed.
Things you might need :
-LED light : plan ahead where you want to put this light. I secured mines in the housing unit for my garage switch. Measure the voltage for your garage switch & buy the corresponding led
-Roller switch :I got these from digikey. A larger switch is easier to work with. Sorry if I don't have pics of these as a part.
-Wires to run from garage roller switch to garage motor. I ran it to oem switch.
-Aluminum bracket & Flat aluminum bar
Here are pics of finished product. Should be Straightforward.
Ps. Please measure voltage & exercise caution when doing any electrical project. I will not be liable for any damages you inflict upon yourself
