A while back, I was fiddling with the settings in the car in an attempt to get the mirrors to fold in when I drove onto my 4-post lift. I could not figure out any way to get the mirrors to fold in while the car was driving, but now when the car is parked, the mirrors fold in. I'll need to figure out how to undo that, but in the meantime....

Is there any way to have the mirrors folded-in while driving?

I also noticed a little red blinking light at the base of the mirror when parked. I'm guessing it always does that, but is just noticeable with the mirror rotated up? Is that the lane change assist?

You should have the switch on the driver door panel by the mirror adjust buttons or does yours not have one?

The manual says max of 30mph to activate via that switch if the car is moving, so if you have the switch it should fold them in. It does on mine.

Settings can be configured to automatically fold in mirrors when the car is locked either by fob or automatic locking. (That's the default setting as far as I know.)

p 94 & 95 of owner's manual.

D'oh! Thank you -- how embarrassing. I was so fixated on the PCM settings, I didn't even think to look for a button. I do have it, and it does work.

@Tom As far as the red blinky light by the mirror is for the alarm.
