Lincoln Corsair: 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 exterior
mirror control 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
exterior mirror control 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 motors. After 3-10 minutes have elapsed, normal operation resumes.
