Sorry for hijacking. I appreciate your diagram for reversing polarity. To take this one step further is there a way to control this with 1 auxillary remote wire. I am using only a 3 channel and the other 2 channels are being utilized for the door actuators. Also I assume the circuit will have to maintain constant power instead of the pulse the remote normally generates. Thanks.

You could use this circuit. You could use a third relay to break the power or ground connection when not in use.
