Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Right Mirror Parallel Park Assist: Notes
When vehicle is shifted into Reverse, PCM sends and signal to Left Font Door Control Module (LFDCM), indicating vehicle is in reverse. LFDCM then sends a signal to Right Font Door Control Module (RFDCM) to move right mirror down approximately 7 degrees from original position. When vehicle is shifted out of Reverse, mirror moves back to original position.
When vehicle is in Reverse and parallel park assist is activated, mirror can be moved manually for additional curb viewing, but when vehicle is shifted out of Reverse, mirror moves back to original position.
