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.
Mirrors - Power: Operation
There are 3 types of mirror adjuster switches used. Type I uses a left-to-right rocker switch for mirror selection and 4 buttons for mirror movement. Type II uses a rotary switch, which is turned clockwise for right-side mirror and counterclockwise for left mirror and can be moved UP, DOWN, LEFT or RIGHT for mirror direction. Type III has a paddle switch for mirror selection located centrally among the four movement buttons. See Figure . The power mirror motors are integral in mirror assembly and cannot be replaced separately.
