Viper 350HV and Factory Relay

sorry I didnt check enable forum codes I guess

{P}Okay I'll tell you my little problem.  I have a Viper 350hv alarm setup in the car and I also want it setup so when I set my alarm my factory mirrors fold in.  I had a friend who works at tweeters set it up and they didnt use my factory relay but 2 dei relays to do the same job.  but now one of the relays quite working so.......{/P} {P}My question is can I just take there's out and put mine in?  Basically my relay just completes a circuit to open and close the mirrors?{/P} {P}Here is a diagram of my relay:{/P} {DIV} {P class=Msonormal style="MARGIN-TOP: 0px; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px"}{U}OEM Relay Box Legend{?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /}{o:p}{/o:p}{/U}{/P} {P class=Msonormal style="MARGIN-TOP: 0px; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px"}{SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"}1-mirror motor A (blu/red){o:p}{/o:p}{/SPAN}{/P} {P class=Msonormal style="MARGIN-TOP: 0px; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px"}{SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"}2-ground (blk){o:p}{/o:p}{/SPAN}{/P} {P class=Msonormal style="MARGIN-TOP: 0px; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px"}{SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"}3-mirror switch (blu/yel){o:p}{/o:p}{/SPAN}{/P} {P class=Msonormal style="MARGIN-TOP: 0px; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px"}{SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"}4-switched power (wht/blu){o:p}{/o:p}{/SPAN}{/P} {P class=Msonormal style="MARGIN-TOP: 0px; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px"}{SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"}5-mirror motor B (grn/yel){o:p}{/o:p}{/SPAN}{/P}{/DIV}

3rd try has to be the charm

Okay I'll tell you my little problem.  I have a Viper 350hv alarm setup in the car and I also want it setup so when I set my alarm my factory mirrors fold in.  I had a friend who works at tweeters set it up and they didnt use my factory relay but 2 dei relays to do the same job.  but now one of the relays quite working so.......

My question is can I just take there's out and put mine in?  Basically my relay just completes a circuit to open and close the mirrors?

Here is a diagram of my relay:

OEM Relay Box Legend

1-mirror motor A (blu/red)

2-ground (blk)3-mirror switch (blu/yel)4-switched power (wht/blu)5-mirror motor B (grn/yel)

dont take the factory ones out but work around it using its existing relays. on #4-switched powered, test the polarity of it when the mirror is active, then try to go from there. Houston,TX

well the factory relay was never in the car but I did manage to get it working..... just took a few pepsi's lol....

-well whatever it was, use it. -trigger that "switched powered" w/ another single relay to power it for a certain amount of time of folding in. is this a Lexus or Mercedes?Houston,TX
