Rear View Mirrors - Exterior, Memory 

LH and RH exterior mirror glass movement is controlled by the exterior mirror control switch, DSM and the LH and RH exterior mirror motors. The exterior mirror control switch sends voltage signals to the DSM. The DSM provides voltage and ground to the appropriate exterior mirror motors to move the selected exterior mirror glass to the desired position.

The memory function recalls the preferred position of the exterior mirrors when the transmission is in PARK or NEUTRAL and the memory set switch, RKE transmitter (without Intelligent Access (IA)) or Intelligent Access (IA) key (With Intelligent Access) is activated.
