Program a remote transmitter for a Sears garage door opener.
Garage door openers have made it easy to open and close garage doors without getting out of the vehicle. Early models were susceptible to problems with a limited number of codes that could be used to synchronize a remote transmitter. Your remote transmitter could open your neighbor's garage if they shared the same transmitter codes. Modern models feature security enhancements that alleviate this problem and also provide additional options such as resetting the synchronization code in case a remote transmitter is lost or stolen. Does this Spark an idea?
