ABSTRACT:
A system and method are provided for selectively tilting side mirrors located on the driver and passenger sides of a vehicle. The system has a mirror selection switch with a driver position and a passenger position. A control module receives a mirror selection signal from the mirror selection switch and receives a reverse gear signal. A first actuator is controlled by the control module and linked to a passenger side mirror. The control module controls the first actuator to tilt the passenger side mirror when the mirror selection signal indicates the mirror selection switch is in the passenger position and the reverse gear signal is indicative of the vehicle being in a reverse gear.
