A vehicular exterior mirror system comprises an exterior mirror assembly
and an electronic control system. The exterior mirror assembly has a
fixed support adapted to be mounted to the side of the vehicle and has a
mirror housing supported by a support arm and movable along the support
arm from a first position proximate to the fixed support to a second
position proximate to a distal end of the support arm. The exterior
mirror assembly comprises a first electrically powered mechanism for
pivoting the support arm about the fixed support, a second electrically
powered mechanism for moving the mirror housing along the support arm and
a third electrically powered mechanism operable to adjust a mirror unit
of the mirror housing to a desired adjusted position. The electronic
control system is operable by the driver of the vehicle to control
operation of at least the first electrically powered mechanism
independent of operation of the second electrically powered mechanism.
