I'm having problems wiring up my JDM S14 power folding mirrors. I searched various different forums to find an answer but still no answer... I have used the following write-ups:

- zer...age=1- http://www.northwestnissans.co...lding- http://zilvia.net/f/tech-talk/....html

The second write-up on that list is my write-up which shows how to install the mirrors, not how to write them up using the switch I have. Here are pics of what I'm talking about:

Wires from the car:

1. Blue/Black2. Black3. Orange4. Blue/Red5. Yellow/Blue6. Purple/White7. Yellow/Black

Also not pictured are 2 extra wires coming from the mirrors, the Orange and Pink wire which are used for the folding function of the mirrors.

Wires from the JDM switch:

1. Green/Black2. Purple/White3. Black4. Light Green/Black5. Yellow/Blue6. Yellow/Black7. Light Green/Red8. Light Green9. Blue/Black10. Blue/Red

I wired up all the colors that matched and connected the Green/Black and Light Green/Black wires to the Orange and Pink wires (used for the folding function), but still nothing happened. The mirrors won't fold or adjust. There is nothing wrong with the mirrors ad there is nothing wrong with the wiring (by that I mean all wires are connecting the way they are supposed to be connected).

I used this to match up wires on the mirrors:

I matched the wires up the way are supposed to be by looking at this JDM adapter/connecter.

Wires from the car, wires from the JDM switch:

So I don't know I'm doing right or wrong... I can't figure this out... If anyone could help me figure this out that would be really great... Thanks!

This is what you need to do. Get a 12V adaptor, connect black(-) and solid green(+) lines to it and figure out one by one before you install them on the car. positron_'s write up should be good enough. You have to kinda play around to find the wires for the folding functions though.

Figure out what? If I installed the wires correctly?

I've installed the mirrors into my car a year ago. I don't have any pictures ATM, but if you can wait like a day or two I can go take a picture of the plug and all of the wires that are connected.
