Dacker Posted June 6, 2021 Report Share Posted June 6, 2021 Alright I have an 07 edge and robbed some painted to match mirrors off a wrecked 08. Problem is my mirrors only had 3 wires in the 16 pin connector (obviously up,down, left, and right) the painted ones have 11 wires in the connector. Did some research and successfully swapped the 2 wires where the up and down movement wasn't backwards but I can't get either side to move left or right. Does anyone have a diagram or advice on how to fix this. I'm sure some of the other wires are probably for signals, defrost, puddle lights etc... I can eventually wire up later but really just want to get them moving left to right first. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EddieHudson Posted June 7, 2021 Report Share Posted June 7, 2021 Put the wires back the way they originally were on the replacement mirrors and see if they work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enigma-2 Posted June 9, 2021 Report Share Posted June 9, 2021 From an 09 schematic WITHOUT MEMORY, WITHOUT HEAT Left hand side mirror: Pin 1(6), gray = ground for both motors Pin 2(5), blue, green stripe = (+) U/D Pin 3(8), brown, blue stripe (+) L/R Right hand side mirror: Pin 1(6), gray = ground for both motors Pin 2(2), yellow, violet stripe = (+) U/D Pin 3(7), brown, white stripe = (+) L/R (×) = pin connection on mirror switch WITH MEMORY, WITH HEAT Driver: Pin 1(4), green = vertical up Pin 2 & 3(2), white = vertical down & horiz left Pin 4(5), blue, brown stripe = horiz right Pin 5, violet = puddle lamp Pin 6, black = ground (-) Pin 7, green, violet stripe = mirror heater Pin 8 n/a Pin 9(12), brown, yellow stripe = vertical pot Pin 10(1), gray, violet stripe = pot feed Pin 11(13), yellow, blue stripe = horiz pot Pin 12(11), yellow = pot common Pin 13, blue, gray stripe = power mirrors (+) Pin 14, brown = power mirrors (-) Passenger: Pin 1(7), white,brown stripe = vertical up Pin 2 & 3(8), yellow, gray stripe = vertical dn & horiz left Pin 4(6), white, violet stripe = horiz right Pin 5, violet = puddle lamp Pin 6, black, green stripe = ground (-) Pin 7, green, violet stripe = mirror heater Pin 8 n/a Pin 9(14), brown, green stripe = vertical pot Pin 10, gray, violet stripe = pot ground Pin 11(15), blue, orange stripe = horiz pot Pin 12, yellow = pot common Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dacker Posted June 12, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2021 Sorry for the delayed reply but thanks for the responses. Looking at the info enigma-2 sent I compared it to mine. The colors unfortunately don't match up with mine but I gave it another College try to no avail. Here are the pics of my wires. I also don't understand why even though I have 3 wires they don't follow the 3 wire pattern posted. Mine is 1 wire is up, 1 down and horizontal left, and one right. Doesn't look like there's a dedicated ground. I also tried taking a wire straight from the battery any putting it in each slot on the back of the connecter while it was still plugged up to make sure any ground if needed was made and nothing moved not even the up or down that would move with the switch so I'm very stumped now lol. The first 2 are top and bottom of the plug coming off new mirror and the last one is plug coming off my car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enigma-2 Posted June 12, 2021 Report Share Posted June 12, 2021 I'd use a VOM to figure out which is which. Probe each contact on resistance to locate ground (with one probe in chasses ground find the pins that show 0 ohms). The probe each pin using dc voltage range while holding the mirror switch left or right or up or down. While the color codes may have changed between years, it's almost certain they use the same operational configuration to achieve the sames results. Note that a completely different system is used between the 3-wire and 11-wire mirrors are used. For example in the 3-wire mirror, pin 2 controls the mirror up/down and pin 3 controls the left/right; whereas in the 11-wire mirror, pin 2 and pin 3 are wired together to turn the mirror down and left at the same time. They use completely different methods to control the motors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EddieHudson Posted June 13, 2021 Report Share Posted June 13, 2021 I've been fooling around trying to understand the wiring. Try this. PINS FROM DOOR SWITCH - - TO MIRRORS #5 to #4 Drivers mirror #8 to #2 &3 Passenger mirror #2 to #2 & #3 Drivers mirror #7 to #1 Passenger mirror #6 to #6 Driver & Passenger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dacker Posted June 14, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2021 I did check it with a meter and none of the wires coming from the truck are ground. The one in slot 3 green with blue stripe is mirror right, the one in center solid green or grey (I'm color blind bad) is mirror down and mirror left, and the wire in slot 1 which is blue with green stripe is mirror up. This is for the driver's side. Ok I'm not real sure how this will work bc I only have wires coming from my truck in slots 1,2, and 3. See last pic above.

Dacker Posted June 14, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2021 Ok I just jumped pins 2 and 3 and 2 and 4 out and got horizontal movent however it was backwards... I push left and it goes right and vice versa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dacker Posted June 14, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2021 Jumping 1 to 3 makes left and right move up and down instead and jumping 1 to 4 make it go up/left and down/right when pushing left or right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enigma-2 Posted June 18, 2021 Report Share Posted June 18, 2021 Uhhhhhhhjhhhhhhhhh ok. (I'm so confused). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
