Hello all

Not new to the form but I don't post much. But I do have a question on my 2004 sierra GMC 4.3 base model no power opts. My son has the same year make and model truck but his is full power opts. The motor blow in his and he's going to part it out but told me if I wanted power locks windows and mirrors that I could take the whole door and switch them with mine. To me that sounds cool but will it work like that? Do I need the fuse box  from his truck or does mine have it but just not in use because I don't have those opts. Any help would be nice. Thank you

pretty sure you wont have any of the wiring harnesses that the other truck does so just swapping the doors wont get you anywhere

      Power Window Issues
      By Bleepster
      Good afternoon.  I am experiencing weird issues with my rear power windows on both drive and passenger side.
      both rear windows will roll down, but not up with their own window switch in the back doors.
      i can (intermittently) roll them up with the master switch on driver door.  the other day, i couldn't roll the passenger rear up at all.  i ended up opening and closing the rear door, then i could roll the window up.
       
      any ideas on what i should start looking for?
       
      Appreciate any help.  thank you

      Wanting to upgrade to heated tow mirrors, need some help
      By Nathan m
      I have a 09 silverado 1500 WT 
       
      It has heated rear window but no heated mirrors. And I can't see a wire for heated mirrors in the door compartment (although I haven't opened the door panels in a few months) I do seem to have 2 wires (it feels like 2) going through the door boot (I haven't opened the boot to see the colors but I assume it is for the door open sensor, but I could be wrong)
       
       
       
      I am wanting to add tow mirrors to the truck and especially heated mirrors ( I plow with the truck and really would love the heated mirrors) I was wondering how I would go about adding heated mirrors ( like I said I have the heated back glass so shouldn't the wiring for heated mirrors already be in the truck as I think they run off the same switch and I'm gonna assume the same harness ( I could be completely wrong and they could be different harnesses)
       
      Looking for help as I am wanting to do this conversion if possible

      Adding Power fold Mirrors to your T1 truck without the memory package
      By Aaaaaaaayush
      I found a cheap pair of T1 Power folding mirrors on 1AAUTO (NON OEM) that are meant just as a replacement to the OEM Memory Package mirrors, obviously I don't have the memory package but I really wanted to give this a try and so far I would call it a success!
       
      This is what I ordered:
      P/N: 1AMRP03092 The Mirrors (from 1AAUTO.COM) P/N: 84532268 The OEM Power Fold Switch (from any GM Parts store) 22-20 Ga. Female GT 150 Series, Sealed #12191818 The Terminals (from amazon)
      22 AWG 6 conductor wire The Cable (from amazon)
      And The heart of the project: a generic, Chinese, Cheap Power fold mirror controller (from amazon)
       
      I WILL MOSLTY BE FOCUSING ON EXPLAINING THE DRIVERS SIDE FOR THIS POST, IT IS ALMOST THE SAME ON THE PASSANGER SIDE EXCEPT THAT SIDE HAS THE AMBIENT TEMP SENSOR. WHEN YOU DISCONNECT THIS SENSOR AND RECONNECT IT THE TRUCK WILL SHOW -40 DEGREES, TO RECALIBRATE THE AMBIENT TEMP SENSOR YOU MUST DRIVE GREATER THAN 65MPH FOR MORE THAN 1 MINUTE.
       
      Now my goal for this project was just to be able to power fold my mirrors when I leave my truck and lock the doors, but also unfold when I unlock. I haven't received the interior switch just yet but I am planning on figuring out how to make it work!
       
      I started with checking my door harnesses for any existing wire that would make this easier, my truck came from the factory with the wiring for power adjustable mirrors, heated mirrors, and the puddle/task lamps (which is odd because my OEM mirrors did not have the puddle nor task lamps. The new aftermarket mirrors did include the two lights and I was able to get both of them working.
       
      Next I played with the generic power fold mirror controller to see how it worked. It has the inputs for lock and unlock as well as inputs for an interior switch. The power inputs are +12V,GND, and ACC. There is just one two-wire output to fold and unfold the mirrors by switching the polarity of the motors. The ACC Wire (Accessory) is required because the controller folds and unfolds the mirrors based on the lock status. When ACC is applied the lock and unlock folding feature is disabled.
       
      Next I looked at the GM Upfitter Electrical pinout section to see what pins I was looking for on the Mirror. There are only two pins for the Power Fold Motor, 
       Pin 3 Circuit 3412 Driver Mirror Motor Fold IN Control  Pin 15 Circuit 3411 Driver Mirror Motor Fold Out Control  
      I first ran the new wires from the drivers side fuse panel to each mirror going under the dash and through the door harness holes and boots. I then terminated two leads on each side right at the mirror, the cable I used had 6 wires but I just wanted extra for any future projects. The mirrors went on without a hitch, and I pulled the locking pin off the mirror connector and put in my new two terminated leads in there correct positions (polarity really doesn't matter because reversing the polarity will just make the motor turn the wrong way). 
       
      Now we have two new power folding mirrors with our own DIY harnesses installed and ready to go.
       
      Next is finding your power sources and Lock and Unlock signals. For the +12V I used literally any fuse on the drivers side (they are all always powered) and for the ACC I had to run a wire to the heated steering wheel fuse on the passenger side (The passenger side fuse box has both always on power and accessory power). For the lock and unlock signals I used Pins 2 and 4 of the K9 Body Control Module pink X6 connector. These are for the drivers door lock actuator.
       
      Finally with the ignition off so that ACC is not powered connect the Fold control wires from the controller to the mirrors and press the lock and unlock button to get the polarity correct. If its wrong just flip the two wires for that corresponding mirror.
       
      If you have any questions just reply!
       

       

       

       

       

       

       
      You can see the Generic controller tucked away inside the drivers side fuse panel.

      Electric Mirrors don't work
      By Gary Baker
      Being new to the forum world I hope I'm doing this right.
      I recently purchased a 2015 GMC 2500 HD used with a newly installed CM flatbed.
      80000 Primarily highway miles and very clean and well kept.
      Purchased from a dealership so previous owner history is not available due to privacy laws.
      Everything on this truck works like new except a few functions of the electric Mirrors.
       They are manual extend and manual fold and both upper panes adjust fine.
      The problem is that the turn signals do not flash in the mirror "dots", the Amber clearance lights do not come on and the rear facing white lights do not come on with the box lights.
      No way of knowing if the heated part works being it's summer.
      Trying to search the owners manual for fuse information was a bit of a challenge so I tested all fuses for power on both sides and all that have any power have power on both sides in all 3 panels.
      I thinking that one of the relays or circuit breakers must have failed and are not labeled for function that I can access.
       Fuse labeled htd mir has no power on either side.
       Any help would be greatly appreciated!

      2009 avalanche Rear Windows Failure
      By AdriansAvalanche09
      I have a 2009 Avalanche, both rear windows wont operate with the front or individual switches. I replaced the main driver side switch with no success, I checked all the wires and fuse box on driver side. 
       
      Any ideas?
