Need Help with Rear View Mirror

Will someone provide me with the connector pin out and wiring diagram for an Auto Dimming Rear View Mirror?

Assuming you got it out of an Explorer....

Pin 6 RD/YE 12v in Run 7.5A fuse
Pin 5 LG/YE 12v Hot at all times 7.5A fuse
Pin 4 BK Ground
Pin 3 BK/PK 12v routed through the DTR reverse contacts or backup lights switch (manual trans) 15A fuse
Pin 2 WH/VT to Autolamps Sensor output 2, which is a switched ground shared with the Parking and Head Lamp relay coils.

I don't know a thing about that mirror, but it appears it needs to know the lights are on by giving it a ground on WH/VT.


PM me an e-mail address and I will send you the diagrams.

Looking at the back of the mirror, at the connector, is Number 1 pin closest to the mirror arm or the furthest away?
