Since this board is my go to for information all all topics! I want to convert my garage door openers to flush mounted push buttons in a wall box, just to clean things up. I was hoping it would be pretty straight forward, and I could order a plain momentary push button online something like this

https://www.amazon.com/Momentary-URTONE-Stainless-Suitable-Mounting/dp/B018R2ONH8/ref=s9_simh_gw_g60_i1_r?_encoding=UTF8&fpl=fresh&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=&pf_rd_r=SSPK9HEN1VBS66FE53WT&pf_rd_t=36701&pf_rd_p=781f4767-b4d4-466b-8c26-2639359664eb&pf_rd_i=desktop

There are two wires from the opener down to the wall switch. My only worry is there is a small board, led, and resistor in the guts of the factory switch. Will a simple switch like this work? Or should I leave well enough alone? Thoughts?

Is the existing switch lighted? Not sure what the board would be for. I replaced my mom's with a simple door bell switch and it works fine.

Ya, it's got a small led backlight. Thanks for the reply.
