Does anybody have a wiring diagram for the 180sx power folding mirrors? I have looked all over and can't find one. Any help is appreciated.

im with you dude. how many wires do you have left after you wire up the mirror portion. my pigtail has 2 wires left over with a total of 5. one blue and one green. i read somewhere that the green is ground but i still dont know how the mechanism works. do i just apply +12 to the blue and it opens...how do i know when to let off or is it automatic? i dont want to just try it cause im scared to burn something out.

but yeah, what jerry said, some help please!

thanks

Hey guys i just though i give my input to this topic.I have JDM mirrors in my S13.This is a very simple plug and play swap, only if ur s13 came with OEM power mirrors. All ur have to do is match each individual wire color to the JDM control and u ll be left with 2 wires, i think it is a green and blue.not sure i have to check my set up again.the 2 wires left are to open and close the mirriors. u dont need to put any extra wire to power up the mirrors to oepn or close. the oem connections has a power supply wire comming in, all u need to do is run 2 extra wires to each mirror, to open and close them.

If u need more questions LMK

from what ive read you cannot run just a straight 12 v to the wires...on opening one will be hot and one ground and on closing the polarity will switch...like a power door lock or window motor...i added power mirrors to my s13 but will have to look for my diagrams on what wires do what...also if you have an fsm it will show you what wires do what

this is the wiring diagram from the fsm for the usdm s13---then all you have to do is wire the open and close function
