Mirrors: Description and Operation

OPERATION
The Power Mirrors are operated by an instrument panel-mounted switch that has two controls. On control directs power to either the Left or Right Power Mirror. The other control directs power to the UP/DN or Left/Right Motor in the appropriate Power Mirror.

With the Ignition Switch in "ACC" or "RUN", voltage is present at the Power Mirror Switch.

With the Power Mirror Switch Left/Right Select Switch in the "RIGHT" position and the Directional Control Switch held in the "UP" position, current flows through the RADIO Fuse, a set of Switch Up contacts, circuits 605 (BR), the Right Power Mirror UP/DN Motor, circuit 601 (LG/BK), the Right Switch contacts, and a second set of Switch Up contacts to ground. The Right Power Mirror UP/DN Motor runs and the mirror face pivots upward.

When the Directional Control Switch is released, both sets of Up contacts open and the UP/DN Motor stops running.

Moving the Directional Control Switch to the "DOWN" position causes current to follow the same path, but in the opposite direction. The UP/DN Motor then runs in the opposite direction and the mirror face pivots downward.

Left/Right operation of the Right Power Mirror and operation of the Left Power Mirror is similar to that described above.
