Can the Turn Signal Be Used on K-Source Towing Mirrors If Not on OEM Mirrors on 2012 Silverado
Question:
Your listing says You cannot upgrade to a power mirror with heated face and turn signal if your OEM mirror is not already equipped with those functions. If I have heated mirrors can I heated mirrors with signal light? Is the wiring for the signal already there? 2012 Silverado Ext Cab Thanks

Expert Reply:
The only way to verify if there is a turn signal wire already ran to your side mirrors is to remove your OEM mirrors and see how many wires are there. If your mirrors only have the heat feature, then there will most likely only be one wire connected to the mirror.
If you discover multiple wires once you remove your mirrors, then you can use a circuit tester like part # PTW2993 to test the function of each of those wires. If there is a wire that has signal when the turn signals are on, then you can use the turn signal function on the K-Sourse Custom Towing Mirror, # KS62094G using that wire. If there is not an active turn signal wire, then you can still use this towing mirror, but you will not be able to use the turn signal function.
