Mirror
Principle of Operation
The output stages and memory storage of mirror positions is handled by the respective
door modules. The positioning of the mirrors is signaled from the driver’s door switch
block/module. The signal passes over the P-Bus to the passenger’s door module.
The memory/recall for the driver’s mirror comes directly into the door module from the
memory switch. The operation for the passenger’s side mirror is carried out over the P-Bus
from the driver’s door module to the passenger’s door module.
The memory positions are stored in each respective module. The memory position is rec-
ognized by the feedback potentiometers located on each mirror motor.
The reverse gear tilt feature for the passenger’s mirror is signaled from the GM, over the P-
bus, when reverse is selected and the mirror switch is set for the driver’s side.
Mirror heating is controlled by each respective door module. The GM receives the outside
temperature from the IKE and passes it to the door modules. The “ON” time for mirror heat-
ing is adjusted based on the outside temperature.
A pulsed heating cycle is used for the mirrors based on the outside temperature.
