Power folding mirrors?

The relay diagram will work from KPierson. The way his works is that you have to have the system armed when connecting 87 to 30 and you have to have the system disarmed when connecting 87a  to 30. That is the only difference. The way that I have the diagram laid out is that you can use it whether or not the vehicle is armed or disarmed and also if you do not have a secondary AUX channel you can use a single AUX channel in conjunction with a latching ( flip flop ) relay to reverse the wires so that it will open and close the mirrors with one channel.

so if i do it KPierson way it will ony work when armed they will fold in and disarmed they will fold out.. thay fine i dont want to make it to involved with so many relays. im not going to be playing with it all the time .just sometimes i forget to fold them in anad then i have to go back and do it, so having it that way with just one relay is fine... as long as that way will work...

ok i went today to go test the wires but i cant find them i tried at the switch and goingto the mirror itself i get no readings at all anyone know the color codes casue i tested almost everyone with now luck please help thanks

ok heres some info i found now i thik im really stuck "brown and grey wires at the mirror harness are the ones you need to tap into, they extend and retract by changing the polarity on these wires. I have no idea which is which, as I never got around to doing the conversion myself. You can probably find which is which with a multimeter on those two wires. "

If its a reverse polarity system you won't be able to 'tap' the wires.  You will have to cut them and install relays.  Depending on how the mirrors are wired you may get in to a complicated mess.  Some power mirror system motors do NOT rest at ground (like door lock systems).  If the wires don't rest at ground you'll have to switch both wires, (+) and (-), for both directions (4 relays).  Kevin Pierson

nothing is ever easy..... well if i get a chance this weekend i will test those wires and see what happens if that the c case the n i think ill just forget it what is the best way to test the wires.. i tend t to ge ta little confused with the rest at ground and the reverse polarity systems thanks

Hi, first I just recently found these forums and have found them really useful. I have an '03 Silverado with the Matrix rsx3.5. I want to do this mod also, so I've been searching for wiring info so the members on here can better help. I think I've found the wiring info. Go to http://www.streetinspiredkustoms.com/ and click on Technical Instructions, and then Complete Turn Signal/Dim/Lamp/Heat Mirror Conversion from 03-04 to 99-02 Guide and then Drivers side (or other documents) HTH and let me know if you can get it to work. I'm still learning about the wiring for relays etc. This should be the wire colors for the mirror we have

Anyone have a relay diagram on how to do this. I would like them to close/open upon arm/disarm

did you get it to work ? let me know please kmil74@sbcglobal.net thanks

any update on this would be great. I too want the function
