Hi all

I just bought this wireless turn signal mirror from walmar they are made by CIPA the part number is 49900 and the are supose to be very easy to install but i am having a very hard time with them

i am trying to install them on honda civic 2006 and and audi A4 2007 and i have no luck what so ever

in the honda the turn signal is powerd by a negative volts

and in the audi the only wiring i can find is in the vehicle electrical system control module which is after the relay

if someone can help me find the wiring for this cars that would be great

If they are wireless, you should not have to wire them.

The Honda should be positive at the lamp itself. I imagine that the Audi will also be positive at the lamp itself.

Connect the left wire up with the constant wire to see if it blinks as it should. If it does flash properly, there is a way here to change the blinking signal to a steady 12 volts to power your main unit as long as the turn signals are turned on.

If it does not work properly with either situation, I really do not think I can help you. Had it worked properly one way or the other, I have a solution for you. I could have ran wires into the door by now. And connect a wired unit.
