Mirrors: Description and Operation

Circuit Description
The operation of the two outside mirrors is controlled by the power outside mirror switch. Each mirror has two reversible motors: One motor moves the mirror up and down, the other motor moves the mirror left and right. The master selector switch in the power outside mirror switch controls the direction of the battery voltage to the right or left outside mirror.

With the ignition switch in ACC or ON, battery voltage is applied from fuse 9 to the power outside mirror switch. With the master selector switch in the LEFT position and the up/down switch in UP, battery voltage is applied to the up contacts of the up/down switch and to the left power mirror up/down motor.

Ground is provided to the up contacts of the up/down switch and the left power mirror up/down motor and the mirror goes up. In the DOWN position, battery voltage and ground are applied to the opposite terminals of the motor. The left/right switch works similarly to the up/down switch. With the master selector switch in the RIGHT position, battery voltage and ground are applied to the right power mirror motors, which then operate in a similar way.
