Hi all

About 3 weeks ago I wrecked my 07 canyon. I played chicken with a pine tree and nobody calls me chicken. Anyway insurance sent me a check and I bought this sweet lil 05 Sierra , 32000 miles, tow package, air leveler, for 10.5 k. An old fella owned and I bought it from his son.

I have a problem though and it's driving me nuts. The truck has ss aftermarket mirrors. The mirrors move when I back up and I have to readjust them. wtf?. It doesn't matter if the selector switch is in the center or selecting either left or right, they both move. Anyone ever heard of this?

Could the mirrors have "curb tilt" that tilts the mirrors down when in reverse? Might be a way to disable?

IIRC

 

Some cars / trucks have a feature that tilts the side mirror down when you shift into reverse ... suposedly so you can see the curb when backing up (?) My 2003 lincoln had that option but could be shut off in the instrument cluster selections. Probably find a wire from the the reverse lights that trigger it (somewhere) ...

My 15 Sierra mirrors do this while in reverse. I've got options for both to tilt, passenger only tilt, neither tilt, and I think driver side only may be an option too. They tilt back up automatically when you take it out of reverse though. It was cool for about 5 minutes, then just got on my nerves when backing out and actually needing to see behind me. I ended up keeping the passenger mirror to tilt for parallel parking. You may have something wired up wrong in the mirrors if they are aftermarket. I would imagine there aren't any options to change the settings if they weren't oem, I could be completely wrong too.
