jdm SIDEMIRROR wiring INFO, attention NEVERSTOP, CTCAT2049 Options

[playr158]

OK after about 10 min....3 15amp fuses and some playing

if you hook the RED wire at the MIRROR to a power source
then a GROUND to the BLACK wire at the MIRROR you get it to move DOWN
then a GROUND to the BROWN wire at the MIRROR you it to move RIGHT

thats as much info as i have now....
BUT that is not goin through the "relay/control switch" that is just wires to wires

How the JDM mirrors work.

There are just 2 wires for the retractor motor, blue and green. If you apply power to one wire and ground the other, the motor runs one way. If you reverse the polarity it runs the other way. The motor has internal limit switches to switch it off when it reaches the end of it's travel, so the power can be left on all the time.


The connections on the JDM control.



1 - retractor motor
2 - retractor motor
3 - spare
4 - left vertical adjuster
5 - chassis
6 - power +12v
7 - right horizontal adjuster
8 - right vertical adjuster
9 - common feed to adjusters
10 - left horizontal adjuster



As for relays, I take your point about using them to save the switch, but in this case the motor current is tiny and I wouldn't have thought it necessary.


The corresponding USDM loom colors

1 - retractor motor
2 - retractor motor
3 - spare
4 - left vertical adjuster - BR/Y
5 - chassis - W/BK
6 - power +12v - GY
7 - right horizontal adjuster - LG
8 - right vertical adjuster - LG/BK
9 - common feed to adjusters - LG/R
10 - left horizontal adjuster - BR/W

GY = Grey
W = White
BK = Black
BL = Blue
BR = Brown
R = Red
Y = Yellow
GR = Green
LG = Light Green
