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.
Memory Mirrors
Each outside mirror contains vertical and horizontal bi-directional drive positioning motors and position sensors. The MSMM provides a 5-volt reference on the signal circuit to each position sensor. The sensors share a common ground circuit. The MSMM monitors the position of the mirror motors by measuring the voltage on each signal circuit. When a memory position is set, the MSMM monitors and stores the position of the outside mirrors. The MSMM adjusts the mirrors to the appropriate positions when a memory recall message is received from the RKE or is requested from the memory set switch.
The power mirror switch during non-memory operation operates both mirrors independently of the MSMM.
