Note: The length of the rubber actuator (1) is critical. Use care in cutting it to length. If the rubber actuator (1) is cut too much the aftermarket transmitter (6) will not activate the garage door opener. If the rubber actuator (1) is cut too long, the storage compartment door (3) will not close properly. Excessive force to close the storage compartment door (3) may cause the door latch to break. • Per the table below, cut the rubber actuator (1) to the proper length based on the thickness (4) measured in the third step. 59
