6th Generation Side Mirrors

Hi there!

I recently purchased some 6th gen Maxima sideview mirrors (a pair) with auto dimming and folding. The mirrors each have a 16 pin harness with 13 pins being used.

According to the FSM, I have no idea what I'm looking at. I've looked at the FSM for 04-08 and couldn't find the connector and the colors that corroborate with the mirror. From my understanding these mirrors have power folding, dimming, and heat.

I was researching this a bit and wound up buying a switch as well to help the install go easier - there were two switches that I found, one with a pink back and one with a blue back. The blue one had more terminals on it, so I bought that. Waiting for it to arrive. I'd rather have the one with more terminals and use less, rather than wind up not having the correct one. I can't find the difference between the two, if anyone knows that would be neat. I'm probably going to buy an aftermarket kit to get them to auto fold as well, I saw a post on a Frontier where the guy wound up taking his switch from the frontier and a switch from the Maxima and combining them to get it to auto fold - any idea if I can do this, if I get a frontier switch?

https://www.clubfrontier.org/threads...lights.136226/ for reference. Anyway, back to the main topic - the wiring diagram for the damn mirrors themselves.

This is what I have with regards to the colors on the harness, from the terminal side -

For the sake of argument I'm going to mark the pinout as such:

1 2 3 ---------------- 4 5 6
7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16

Drivers side has a silver dot scheme running down the wires, the passenger side does not.

1. Black
2. Black
3. Empty
4. Empty
5. Yellow
6. Grey
7. Red
8. Brown
9. Purple
10. Green
11. Blue
12. White / Blue Stripe
13. White / Black Stripe
14. White / Green Stripe
15. White
16. Blank

Since I'm installing these mirrors onto a different car I could really use a hand figuring out what these wires go to, so I can have the controls work, heat work, and the auto dimming feature work as well (yes, my rearview mirror dims so I'm going to tap from that)

I've checked the GW section of the FSM and it looks like my connectors are D4 on the drivers side and D107 on the passenger side.

The mirrors say they're from an '05 however it looks like the 07 or 08 harness matches up the best as it is a 16 pin connector, 04/05 have a smaller connector (14 pin maybe? and 06 has 16 pin but all pins are taken). 07/08 has a 16 pin, the top pinout matches but the missing pin is on the left instead of the right as I have it. The colors don't match on the schematic either.

So.. if anyone has any idea I'd be eternally grateful. Seriously, it would be a huge help.

Thank you kindly!
