Circuit/System Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Cadillac CTS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The driver door module (DDM) and passenger door module (PDM) each provide motor control output functions for their respective mirrors. These output controls allow each door module to command their respective power mirrors in horizontal and vertical positions. The driver door switch assembly (DDSA) sends a serial data message to the door modules when the mirror switch is activated to the up, down, left or right positions. When the door modules detect an active mirror command from the DDSA, they will command the respective mirror motor in the appropriate direction. Each door module commands their respective mirror motors by applying a ground or voltage to the control circuit, depending on the desired mirror position. For more detailed information concerning power mirror operation refer to Outside Mirror Description and Operation .
