Auto Swing Mirrors?

Am in the process of removing a cheap crappy alarm fitted to my R34 4 door and replacing it with a better one. Found the trigger points for the passenger doors ok and figured out how to trigger drivers door. On removing drivers door trim to check wiring i found this box wired into the mirror switch. From some research I believe it to be the module for the auto swing away mirrors. It had been disconnected but I would love to see if I could reinstate it. One side goes to the mirror switch and is plug and play. The other three wires however have me guessing. I split the box and they are marked on the circuit board as follows.

B+ (Straight 12v or Acc/On ?)

Earth (Obvious)

Sig (Trigger wire possibly?)

Its the signal wire that has me stumped. Am presuming that it was connected to the dealer/factory remote central locking to which I didnt get a remote for and was activated when you locked the doors either by key or remote. Anyone got any ideas?

Sorted. Thanks Chris. you were right in that they take their power and signal from the keyless entry module. Power from pin three and signal from pin six. At first there was nothing. Had the switch on the door in the neutral position thinking that the module overrode the switch function. Wrong it has to be switched to the out position to work. A bit of buggerising around but is now working. Hit the lock key on my remote and the mirrors swing in. Turn the ignition on and they swing out. Cool little feature with no real use here except for the novelty factor I guess.

Hand for tight street parking. Or in my case Redcliffe street parking where the idiots get within 2" of your car and destroy mirror housings.

yes. i once got back to my car with the driver side mirror facing outwards.....i was very pissed off but the person/car that did it was no longer there.

Where can I get one of these little modules? I would love for my mirrors to swing in and out automatically.

Mine is a factory nissan accessory item. Read on another post that someone used a jaycar module for auto window rollup to do the same thing.

Hey man I've just been searching the forum to find it but I can't find it anywhere, would you be able to direct me in the right direction please, thanks.

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻

      Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”

      Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
