Electrical Adjustment

The operation of the two power mirrors is controlled by the door mirror switch. Each mirror has three reversible motors.
One motor moves the mirror up and down.
One motor moves the mirror left and right and one folds and unfolds the mirror.

ADJUSTMENT MOVEMENT

With the starter switch in ACC or ON, voltage is applied through fuse C-11 to the control switch. With the master selector switch in LH and the up/down switch in DOWN, voltage is applied through the down contacts of the up/down switch to the left door mirror up/down motor. Ground is provided through the LH contacts of the master selector switch and the DOWN contacts of the up/down switch and the mirror goes down. In the UP position, voltage is applied to the opposite side of the motor.

The left/right switch works similarly to the up/down switch. With the master selector switch in the RH position, voltage is applied to the right door mirror motors which then operate in a similar way.

FOLD AND RETURN MOVEMENT

With the starter switch in ACC or ON, voltage is applied through fuse C-11 to the folding switch. When the folding switch is pressed, voltage is applied through fold switches (in the door mirrors) to the folding motors. Ground is provided for the motors through the folding switch to G202. The left and right door mirrors move towards the fold position. When the mirrors reach the fold position, the fold switches (in the door mirrors) open, removing voltage from the folding motors and they stop. When the folding switch is pressed again, voltage is applied through the folding switch to the opposite side of the folding motors. Ground is provided from G202 through the folding switch and the return switches (in the door mirrors) to the folding motors. The left and right door mirrors move towards the return position. When the mirrors reach the return position, the return switches (in the door mirrors) open and remove ground from the motors and they stop.
