I installed a remote onto my bike,

I opened a spare remote I had, took the battery out, took off the push button and soldered wire in its place, this wire goes to a small switch on my handelbars, I soldered wire to the battery terminals, this goes to the bike battery with a 5 amp inline fuse ( I still think that 5 amp fuse is to big), it work perfectly, I find that I can now open and close the gate from further away than the standard remote does.

Thanks everyone for all the good advice. Now I know what I'll be doing this weekend. I just hope the "smoke" does'nt escape.

Ok so this is what I have done. I soldered the switch on the remote and connected two wires to the battery terminals. Drilled a little hole in the casing of the remote to let the wire through. Then I connected the wires to the right indicator. The remote fits nicely into the front light casing.

Now all I do is switch the right indicator on and off immediately to activate the gate. I take a left turn into my yard so the flashing of the left indicator wont make the gate "deurmekaar".

Thanks again for all the input.

Man I'm loving this new toy
