Network Message Chart: Notes

Module Network Input Messages - PDM 

Broadcast Message Originating Module Message Purpose
Passenger mirror command DDM When the exterior mirror control switch requests movement of the RH exterior mirror, the DDM sends the request to the PDM to drive the RH exterior mirror in the desired direction.

Power Mirror Operation 

When the LH or RH exterior mirror selected with the exterior mirror selection switch and the exterior mirror control switch is pressed up, down, left or right, the command is sent through a LIN circuit between the master window control switch and the DDM. If the LH mirror is selected, the DDM supplies voltage and ground to the appropriate LH exterior mirror motor. If the RH mirror is selected, the DDM sends the passenger mirror command message through the MS-CAN to the PDM. Based on the passenger mirror command message, the PDM supplies voltage and ground to the appropriate RH exterior mirror motor.
