How to synchronize the power folding exterior mirror actuators on Ford F-150?

A procedural step for mirror motor synchronization must happen after hand folding of exterior mirrors or modifying the mirror position without using the mirror control switch. The power lockout activation requires continuous mirror folding or unfolding actions totaling 6 to 10 cycles, which will disable power fold operations for 2 minutes as protection for power fold motor systems until automatic system restart occurs. Set the mirror control switch to its central position at first step. To achieve mirror synchronization the power folding mirrors should be operated automatically four times either inward or outward. You should press the mirror control switch backwards to allow automated movement of the power folding mirrors through 4 cycles. An audible sound indicates that the power folding mirror motors have reached synchronization while they operate.

How to Service the Mirror Actuator and Synchronize Power Folding Mirrors After Installation on Ford F-150?

Service of the power mirror motor begins with eliminating the exterior rear view mirror glass. Before starting service on the exterior rear view mirror motor you need to remove its three securing screws then disconnect the electrical motor connector. The motor should be installed by repeating the removal steps in reverse order. The installation of power-folding mirrors requires synchronizing the mirror functions especially in cases where exterior controls were not used for folding or when replacing power folding mirrors. The Exterior Mirror Motor Synchronization for Power Folding contains the procedures you need to follow for synchronization.
