The Genie 29599S.S Series II Push Button with LED backlight (GWC-BX) is a single-button wall control for Genie garage door openers that use the Series II two-wire wall control interface. Designed as a direct replacement or upgrade wall button, it provides simple open/close operation and a softly illuminated backlight to help locate the control in low-light areas. The LED backlight also offers a quick visual cue that the wall control circuit is powered and connected. This lighted push button is ideal for residential garages and service bays where a basic, reliable wall station is preferred over multi-function consoles.
Installation is straightforward: the control connects to the opener’s low-voltage wall control terminals using two conductors, and it mounts near the entry point to the garage for convenient access. It is intended for Genie openers that accept Series II wall controls and is not compatible with Series III or other three-wire wall consoles. For best results, follow Genie wiring and safety instructions, disconnect power before servicing, and use existing wall control wiring or appropriate low-voltage cable.
