Hey I just put a remote starter in my wife's 2003 Pontiac Vibe, everything was good withthe installation, the starter works like a charm. But today she got in to drive and tried to move her side mirrors(power) and they wouldn't work. I'm stumped on the problem and can't find a wiring diagram that shows which wire is the one for the side mirros. I assume it is down in the driver's kick panel but I have no clue which one it is to make sure i didn't screw something up down there. Thanks for any help. ZC

Without a factory service manual I can't help you with a diagram or wire colors/location. If no one else can help try this.

First off..if suddenly both power mirrors don't work after the install it shouldn't be the mirrors themselves..can't imagine both going at the same time. Odds against that big time...so....

check fuses..if you have the owners manual it will tell you which fuse circuit it is. If not you need to check em all..use a dmm to save time and remember..you can't always tell a blown or bad fuse just by looking at it.

If fuses check out ok get to the back of the switch..perhaps it is unplugged..if it is still plugged in use your trusty meter to see if power is reaching the switch and if it operates (sends power to other wires when you move it). This will tell you if the switch itself went bad..or somewhere along the line it lost power..or ground. And yes...the wires will enter from the door jamb into the kick so you might want to see if anything is unplugged in that area as well.

Good Luck
