Focus ST TDCI Driver Side Wing Mirror Power Fold Wiring Help

Hi,

My driver side wing mirror motor or gearing has failed and the driver side wing mirror only folds in a small way in and out now when the car is locked and unlocked. Also when the manual press switch to fold in and open is used, its the same. tried reset but mirror internals it need replaced.

I can live with out the auto fold in option and avoid the crazy cost of a new or second hand mirror, so I need to ask some of you who have the knowledge and experience what is the feed wire to the mirror plug to stop the power fold signal going to the mirrors motor? (as every time I open and lock car it causes the mirror to partial fold in an jam!)

I have presently pulled the mirror plug out now so I can drive the car but the indicator and puddle underside light then don't work as well as the heated and mirror adjust. as otherwise the motor try's to work and jams in the half closed position and I cant see anything!

I have seen on line others posting the left mirror wiring and ask if the attached pics is the same for my Focus ST DTCI 2015 UK version? It looks like if I remove pin number 4 (arrowed in photo) the power fold will no longer attempt to close or open as now power signal feed which is what I want.  My plug is a 12 pin thanks. The plug photos are my driver side mirror plug I removed and the photo of the feed wires is for a left hand mirror on the focus but may replicate on driver side?

Thanks 👍

    It should be in the gauge cluster settings
