Power and heated mirror not working

Post by prerule »

I bought this prelude used and I guess the previous owner did something with the wires that connecting the power mirror controller. (I guess he might use the power source for the audio system) I can't find the connector to the controller, but I can see the wires been cut. Maybe someone can tell where can I get the connector and how to connect the wires together and make it works.

I will try to take some pics and post it. Please help

thanks :(

Please post some pics if you can.

To clarify: you still have the controller itself, right?

You can tell how the wires are supposed to connect by looking at the color of them. Honda color codes everything, so it's just a matter of matching up the colors. You can get standard wire connectors at just about any hardware store, or even from a Honda dealer.

If possible, could you please be more specific about how many wires and the colors of them.

Definitely need a little more data input. I'm kind of lost on what is wrong and what you need. But then, it is almost 3 in the morning and I've been going since 5 yesterday morning. Kinda too tired to process a lot of info at the moment. But pics are always good. Are the wires cut to the controller in the console/door panel switch (depending on what year you have) or cut at the mirrors themselves?

And why in the hell would someone trash their power mirrors for their audio system use? That makes no sense. Unless they didn't work to begin with....ugh...I dunno. My first directive to you, should you choose to accept it, is: Find the previous owner of this car and slap him, hard, for hacking up a perfectly good car.

Wake me later and I'll give you more.
