How to Replace a Power Mirror in a Ford F-Series

Disconnect the Ford pick up truck's negative battery cable.

Remove the door trim panel by taking all screws out and loosening the clips around the outside of the door. In the 1997-98 F-250hd, F-350 and F-Super Duty, remove the watershield.

Take the mirror sail cover off to find the nuts that hold the mirror in place.

Detach the F-Series truck's power mirror electric connector, and take the wire clips off.

Unscrew the mirror nuts, and take the power mirror off the vehicle's frame while you feed the wiring through the hole in the door.

Put the new mirror in place, and attach the nuts and bolts in the same order you removed them. Secure them tightly before moving to the next step.

Connect the mirror wire to the Ford's electrical supply wire coming out of the door panel, and replace the mirror's sail cover.

Put the door trim panel back in place, snap all clips into place and replace all screws. In the 1997 to 98 series trucks, re-install the watershield.

Hook the negative battery cable back up and test your mirror.
