I wanted to share what it took for me to successfully setup my One Touch Power Fold mirror mod. Feel free to ask questions. BTW, the wiring color and pinout for all AAM years appear to be the same. Green and White on the same connector.

I do recommend using a DEI 530t / 535t window module.

Cheers :D

Nice. Looks like a good DIY link to add the 'mods and retrofit collection' in the stickies at the top.

Yep, Fupabox wired two Ford Taurus/Mustang modules for the switch but never finished the project wiring to the AAM. A Single DEI module is around $50 which is simpler to wire vs the Dual Fords that may require a few polarity reversing circuits.

Let me know if you need help with this. Cheers

Sure! I did some internet hunting and came up with the following:

Per Fupabox on Youtube, he used a Ford "express down" window module part # f2db-14b118-aa
You'll need two modules, one for open and one for close focusing on red wire mirror out (open) and gray wire mirror in (close). Here is the wiring for this module (a little googling). To make it work via lock/unlock. You'll need to follow my 3 SPDT relay diagram above with the exception the Ignition cut-out relay with use 12v, not ground.

1 - Red mirror side / Grey mirror side (module 2)
2 - Red switch side / Grey switch side (module 2)
3 - 12+ Power
4 - Grey switch side / Red switch side (module 2)
5 - Brown wire ground

Mirror switch:
Red - Mirror out (+)
Gray - Mirror in (+)

AAM for keyless entry fold/unfold.
White - Lock <- Fold in
Green - First Unlock <- Fold Out

My preference would be to use an aftermarket DEI 530t/535t window module.

Wiring for aftermarket modules (compare via diagram)

Driver Window Switch Up -> Gray wire switch side (you will cut the gray wire)
Driver Window Motor Up -> Gray wire motor side (you will cut the gray wire)
Driver Window Switch down -> Red wire switch side (you will cut the red wire)
Driver Window Motor down -> Red wire motor side (you will cut the red wire)

Ground -> brown wire at switch
Ignition 12+ -> blue wire at switch
Constant 12+ -> 13mm nut/lug at AAM/fuse box. (Add 15a fuse)
