So, when I installed the new unit, of course it doesn't work. 
Now I am wondering what I did wrong. Any ideas? |
1. How many wires come out of the house itself?
2. What do
the instructions for the new button say each wire on it corresponds to?
I'm guessing that, if you have four wires on the new button, it probably lights up.
