Power Mirror Switch: Description and Operation

Switch

The door mirror switch unit is located on the driver's door inside the door mirror. It comprises a 4-way switch (in/out, up/down), a selector switch for RH/LH mirror, and a tilt-down switch for tilting the passenger door mirror when reversing.
