manual to power mirrors..?

a while back i asked on this forum about what i had to do in order to convert my manual side view mirrors to power mirrors.... well alot of people were telling me all i needed was the control module and the mirrors and it should work..... well i didnt know if i needed a cpu that came off a car with power mirrors and thatz what i kept asking and no one seemed to think so .. well i put the module and the mirrors on today and none of the mirrors are moving with the controller module.. well i was just asking again one more time to see if n e one knew how to do this or if it kan even be done? well thanks guys

Lightbulb power windows

hehe

I did a opposite thing. I changed my power windows to manual.
and the reason I did this is because my windows couldn't open any more and the motor for power windows runs a lot at the dealer.
That's just something I wouldn't recomend getting from the junkyard.

Check if you have the fuse for power windows in your fuse box.

See if it's the fuse problem, if not then you have to make sure to rewire the switches to the fuse box.

good luck.

My personal oppinion is stick to the manual windows.....they are sexier.

ooops.....my bad hehehehe

well check the relays, switches or the connection.

if you did the wiring your self, just try to think what was the last thing you did on the instalation.

good luck.

thanx pyrojunkie.
