Lincoln Aviator: Rear View Mirrors / General Procedures - Power Mirrors Synchronization

Synchronization

NOTE: The power folding mirrors may need to be synchronized any time the mirrors are folded or unfolded without using the folding switch, or if a new power folding mirror is installed.

NOTE: The power telescoping mirrors may need to be synchronized any time the mirrors are extended or retracted without using the telescoping switch, or if a new power telescoping mirror is installed.

NOTE: If the power folding or power telescoping mirrors are continuously electronically moved, the power lockout feature disables the system for approximately 3-10 minutes to prevent damage to the power fold or power telescope motors. After 3-10 minutes have elapsed, normal operation resumes.

NOTE: The truck power folding mirror procedure is shown in the videos; other vehicles and power telescoping mirror procedure are similar.

1. Using the power folding/power telescoping mirror switch, operate the mirrors until an audible click is heard.
