Heres the deal, I have a set of jdm power folding mirrors, i want to install them

there are 7 wires but we will only focus on 6. red, black, brown, yellow, green and blue.

red and black are connected to the folding motor

black, yellow, green, blue and brown are connect to a plate ground.

If you probe Red wire with the black grounded, the mirror folds in, towards the car.

if you probe the black wire and gorund the red, the mirror folds out, away form the car.

How can I make a relay turn that red wire into a from a power to a ground, and vise-versa?

thanks.

If you don't mind holding the button down until the mirrors are in place, you can use this setup:

Pretty simple with just 2 relays, a fuse, and the swtich.

Ok then... How good are you at using relays? PM us so we can help you get your setup up and running.

You'll be using 8 relays, your trigger (button), 2 soft button switches, and a 2-sec.pulse timer (if you want to make this push and forget) for this setup to be done properly.
