I have these M3 mirrors and I tried to see if they even work. I used the wires from the m3 mirror and plugged them into the stock mirror harness and they worked the motors and everything.

So, now when I plugged in the harness to the stock mirrors nothing works. I just checked the fuses and theyre fine. I plugged in the M3 mirrors and those dont work. So, I took a voltmeter and checked the harness and theres no current running through. Is it possible for the switch to work on the passenger side but not the drivers side?

I cant think of any other reason why its not working...any suggestions will help. Thanx!

The wiring info I have shows # 19 and #20 fuses in the under hood-box, And # 14 in the under-dash box.

If you need the info PM with E-Mail and I will send the to you.

OK, thanx for that info, but I think its different for my car. I have a 2001 LX and I need the fuse info for the power side mirrors. If anyone can help Id greatly appreciate it...thanx!

maybe try pushing the power switch to the drivers side? just a thought. The simplest answer is generally the right one. Except in nuclear power, and then you are just screwed.

Yeahh, I tried that...the next thing Im going to test is plugging the drivers side mirror into the passenger side mirror harness and see what happens from there. Hopefully its just a fuse and nothing like the motor inside the mirror. Still....help is appreciated thanx!!

OK, I did some more testing this past weekend.

I unplugged both mirrors and plugged in the drivers side into the passengers side harness and it worked there. So, I know for sure its not the mirror itself.

I took a multimeter and plugged it into the harness. There are three wires 2+ and a ground. One of the + wires gives out a reading of about 3-5 volts. Normally the voltage output is about 11-12 volts.

Does anyone know why this would be happening? Any help is appreciated thanx!
