Alright, I'll try that tomorrow. Hope some glue can fix it!

Though do you thing it's for the same reason that it won't budge went I push the button on the first video at 0:06?

Bringing back an old thread to life..

I bought JDM powerfolding mirrors to go on my Gt-Four from FORGMANN.
Original mirrors were already power folding but broken.

The ones I bought from him don't have the same connector and they only have 5 wires (red, black, brown, blue, green). The connector only has 6 pins, 3 on top and 3 on bottom.

Are they powerfolding? What's the difference?

My St204 has power mirrors but there are only 3 wires for each mirror (red, brown and black), so now I don't know what to think..

Anyone could help me out? Thanks!

P.s. I know **** about electric stuff.

the extra wires power the little motors that fold.

Then, if they have 5 wires it means they're not powerfolding then..?

hey im on my phone and having problema going thru all 15 pages
did someome actually made these mirrors work? and eveytime you remove the key do they fold in?

they only fold in when you push the button

oh i was asking because i used to live in japan and the mirrors of my father's honda odyssey used to fold in automatically when he removed the key if i remember correctly.
so anyone made them 100% to work ?

Installed asd working perfectly

nice I received mine couple of days ago, I will have to review this to make them work.

any additional information or tips for best results.

When you wired these up did you have the relay?

If you didn't have the relay, what did you hook the red/yellow and the blue/white wires up to!?

This is driving me mad. I directly spliced the red/yellow and blue/white wires to the mirror (granted the right side mirror because that's where I"m sitting) and the mirror opened and closed but wouldn't turn off until I disconnected power. It was as if the position sensor wasn't working or something. Do I have to hook it directly to the left mirror first and have that backfeed to the right mirror?

i dont remember colors, but i promise u ill get the info on thursday. the colors u talk about are my wires, or your wires, lol....

i need to paint the mirrors, so i have to take them apart.....

Thanks man,
I'm just curious how everyone else did it without the PINK wire and the relay. What did they hook up, did they just run two wires to each mirror and call it a day?

actualy there are 4 wires to each mirror. and 1 wire to the relay..

I have factory worrying for the most part, it's just how the mirrors hook up to the switch, that eludes me. I won't to try and avoid using the relay because I don't want to make custom harnesses to run to the relay.

Just curious how they hook the fold and unfold wires that connect to the mirrors..... to the switch. Through one mirror to the other? To both of the mirrors at the same time. That's what Id like to know... How the regular US guys did it without the relay.. there is no info on that..

I see that you have resorted to the CCUK forums as well

On a related note, I want to get some JDM power folding mirrors!!! But I'm stingy with cash so only if I get a good deal and they're already painted silver

u need the switch without the relay.

the pink wire sends a 12 volt signal to the relay to open/close circuit. this switch is only a push type, meaning it wont stay depressed...



each mirror has 4 wires. 2 wires open and 2 wires close. it depends on polarity. or you can use a switch one that stays depressed when pressed and viceversa.



i just went the oem way....

#desperate

I have the other switch too...

first examine the diferences between both switches, and are there any extra wires?

This thread is SO messy..

Now I finally sourced a couple of retractable mirrors in the correct colour for my ST205 (black of course), but I cannot find one single usable picture of
how I should wire it ? there are a good pic of it for gen5 but not gen6 ? ..the one that i found does not seem to be correct for my mirrors.

Does someone have a nice schematic with the colors and pin positions for the original Eurospec mirror (electrically adjustable and heated) AND the retractable JDM mirror ?

Are the connector of those two the same ? if not, does anyone know what this connector is called, or maybe a partnumber of it.

I plan to use neither the relay or the original switch, just let it automatically retract when i turn of ignition, and do some own solution with a relay or some logic to fix the switch of polarity.


..My ST205 is a eurospec (LHD) from 1996, the mirrors are also from a JDM ST205 but I have no clue from what year.

Ok so apparently there are 2 diferent jdm mirrors.
.
One with the relay incorporated in the switch and the other with the relay behind the dash

How many cables are coming out from the mirror?

My mirrors have 5 cables in each side. 3 cables are to move the mirror up and down and other 2 to fold/open the mirror.

This is how it works the relay on the switch invertes the polarity + and - So when one of the wires recieve + and the other - they open and when you hit the switch the polarity inverts from positive to negative and negtive to positive and thats when they fold. So you cant shut down the ignition and fold them because you would need constant electricity to fold them.

Idk if I was lucky but the colors of the 3 cables the move the mirror up and down matched the harness of my car. And then i just connecte the extra 2 to wires to the ignition so they only open/fold when the car is running amd when the ignition is on.

Hope this helps unless you have the other mirrors.
