JDM folding mirrors

That turns off power after xx seconds could be a problem. That, and how pressing the fold switch actually keep fold-in relay circuit close for certain second and press it again it triggers the fold-out relay. I'm not that good with electronics lol.

I can replicate the reverse polarity thing without much problem with regular DPDT relay. I guess I should pay the $$ to use the proper switch and box

for the delay use a capacitor, have it charge when u press the button then slowly discharge it thru a transistor that makes a relay turn on and when the cap drys up it turns off

Ah never thought of that lol. Regular timer circuit would work here right?

Also, I've noticed on the Nissan mirrors I have, it has cutoff circuit built in, the motor won't move any further if there are still power applied. I'm curious about Honda setup, since Nissan don't require any control box. Do the folding motor still move if there are still power going to it?

the mirror stops moving when its folded into its correct place but you cant adjust it while it still has power to it if you fold it in after its folded out it will decide to fold out again so you probably could leave the power going into it but honda is smarter than nissan so yeah
