Well the gate opener is working again. Topens dual gate opener. They were very helpful during a warranty claim. Naturally I didnt' tell them it was a lighting strike. The only hold up is they didn't have the main board in stock.

So as it turns out the limit switches were bad as well. They smartly put a 10k resistor across the contacts of a reed switch so they can tell if the limit switches are connected (or burned up). Very clever.

So now we'll have a spare board on hand and a pair of limit switches too.
