Description
Product Overview
Used electric mirror control switch designed for selected Citroën and Peugeot vehicles. This direct-fit control allows precise adjustment of the exterior mirrors from the driver’s door and is commonly referenced as PSA 655424 or AMP 185526. Ideal replacement for mechanics and experienced DIYers when the original switch shows faults.
Compatibility And Fitment
Typically fitted to vehicles such as the Citroën Xsara and other Citroën and Peugeot models depending on equipment level and connector type. Variants exist; always compare part numbers, connector style and VIN before installation to ensure correct fitment.
Typical Fault Symptoms And Causes
- Mirror does not move along one axis (vertical or horizontal).
- Intermittent or unresponsive operation due to worn internal contacts.
- Loose or overly worn joystick causing imprecise control.
- Oxidation or corrosion of contacts from water ingress in the door.
Function And Why It Fails
The switch provides electrical control for mirror position and, on some trims, folding function. Failures are usually mechanical wear of the joystick mechanism, abrasion of internal contact surfaces or corrosion after moisture enters the door cavity. Replacing the switch is usually the fastest and most reliable repair when these symptoms appear.
Replacement Procedure (Guideline)
1. Disconnect the vehicle battery to prevent short circuits. 2. Remove the interior door trim or switch bezel to access the switch. 3. Release the retaining clips and extract the old switch from the frame. 4. Unplug the multi-pin connector and connect the replacement unit. 5. Test mirror adjustment in both axes and left/right mirror selection before fully reassembling the door. 6. If the vehicle has electric folding mirrors, confirm you have the correct variant.
