Default How to get Side Mirrors to automatically fold in when truck is turned off

I'm new to the truck world and three weeks in to owning a 2016 lariat with the 502 package. It does have side mirrors that I can fall dad with the press of a button, however I have not been able to figure out/determine if I could tie that into my memory setting. I have seen trucks before where the mirrors automatically fold in upon shutting off the truck.

Any suggestions/tips would be gratefully appreciated! Thank you so much and owning a truck is long overdue. Thanks, Matt

Several of us here have been using FORscan to enable/disable several things in our trucks. This is one that has not been discovered yet. There are some that have attempted to figure out which setting to change, but no luck yet.

I have a 2016 F150 King Ranch 3.5 ecoboost 6.5 bed Max Tow and am interested to know if anyone in Oklahoma can meet up with me to help me with this same request. Having the mirrors fold in when placed in Park would be a really nice feature to have!

Thank you in advance,
Travis

I thought this was the "Lincoln" mirror forescan change.

You can get your mirrors to fold in when the truck is locked using forescan. I did it to my 2017 Limited. Works great.

Hmm, I just hit the button before I shut off the truck & they fold right in.

I did it also, (through Forscan) but you need to lock the doors in order for them to fold automatically.
