Looks like my opener receiver is part of the whole control board. Do
you know of any stand-alone receivers that can be "trained" to the
remotes built-into automobiles? I think my Q45 remote is Homelink
brand.


I'm not familiar with the Infiniti Q45 or the associated remote.
Normally, I would look at the encoder chip in the Homelink and see if
I can find a receiver that uses the matching receiver chip. However,
Homelink works by cloning the codes from the remote, so all that may
not be necessary. If the visor thing has a picture of a house above
the buttons, it will do rolling code which covers most remotes. Here's
the instructions for the Homelink:

With luck, it might work with your unspecified model garage door
opener.


Good find Jeff, looks exactly like on my visor... and the instructions
are quite clear. All I had found so far were confusing and
conflicting :-(

Door opener is Genie 2024. Not exactly my favorite brand, but it
looks like they've cured the problems I reported about 10 years ago...
