u have to see if ur alarm has got an "output when armed" signal or not. If have, then just tap this wire and by using a relay, hock it up to the mirror button...

hi bro trex92 thks for the reply.
yes my alarm do hav output when alarm.but when i do a check on the mirror sw i got a little problem.let me explain slowly.
i check thr's a live +12v constant n a -GND
den 2 wire tat hav no +V when the mirror is either close or open,but when i fold the mirror 1 of the wire will hav +12v so i just try it wif a direct +12v to it my fuse blow.i do not noe why like tat.

Hmmm.... how many time you arm and disarm your car in a day?

Prepare to get a new motor fow the mirror..

bro u mean too much of folding will spoil the motor?

mine was 2 years old now. and my motor still ok ;)... Maintain the grease inside the motor at least 2 to 3 month and it will give you a superb performance.

i got a problem too...is...my car have RPM lock.means when i kick to 2k rpm...my door will lock..then the mirror will close....so...how can i do??

 

[kruger]

[shb-6000]

i aoiladi test...same too...because when arm is one beep....disarm is two...so when disarm...the side mirrio will beep>open beep>close....i means beep-lock...beep beep..is unlock...thanks....can you show delay pic for me...car is CRV..thanks

 

[trex92]

kruger means that u check ur car alarm for any output when armed signal, eg the LED lights blinks when the alarm is armed (this is the kind of output when armed signal u need). Though u can't really use the LED coz the signal is not constant unless u mod the signal for ur mirrors.

 

[shb-6000]

can draw a pic of the diagram of delay
