First let me say I notice alot of folks saying that this is not safe so let me first say
Use this mod at your own risk!!!This started because I needed a dry momentary contact for my gate opener and didn't have a universal module but had several appliance modules.
So I started searching the internet and found a couple of post saying it could not be done safely so being as I work with electronics and line voltagedaily I figured I would give it a try.
The first thin I did was remove the relay from the board and break off the little tab that was soldered to the board I then soldered a wire to the relay and insulated with several layers of elctrical tape

Next I removed the wire that connected the newtral socket to the nuetral prong sorry I didn't take a picture but on mine it was a brown wire the red wire that i soldered to the relay connects to the nuetral socket in the hole left by the wire.
now at this point you have a semi isolated momentary relay oh and incase you are wondering aparently disconnecting the relay fromt he board make it momentary after probing the live board with a digital and analog vold meters I came to the conculsion that I had to still disable the local sensing in order fully isolate the relay from the line voltage so you will wont to remove the resister shown here

now according to both meters this is a fully isolated momentary relay

Here is the finished module

I will be using this to trigger the wired switch on my gate opener which is a 24vac trigger so I will post updates as soon as I get it mounted in the waterproof enclosure
As I said before use this at your own risk I assume no respnibility for bodily or property damageThanks,
