Abstract
The mirror drive for remote-controlled rear-view mirror assembly includes an air-tight container housing two motors to drive the horizontal and vertical turns of the mirror and which is composed of two synthetic resin-made casings which are closely attached to each other. Plural conductive plates which electrically connect terminals of the two motors to external terminals outside the airtight containers are previously buried in an insulative block with both ends there being exposed outside of the block. The insulative block covers the opening formed in the lateral wall of either of the casings and is secured to the lateral wall of the casing. Of the exposed ends of the plural conductive plates, those ones which are connected to the terminals of the motor are located inside the casings, while the other ends which are connected to the external connectors are led out through the opening in the casing.
