There should be batterY voltage
. If there is no voltage, check for:
- blown No. 17 (7 5 A) fuse in the under-dash
tuse/relay box- an open in the BLK'/YEL wire.
o lf there is battery voltage, go to step 2.
2. Check for continuity between the No 4 (BLK) termi-
nal and body ground.
There should be continuity.
. lf there is no continuity, check for:
- an open in the BLK wire.
- poor ground (G551).
Left mirror inoporalive:
connect the No. 2 {BLK/YEL) terminal of the 10P connec-
tor to the No. 3 (YEURED) terminal and the No 5 (or No
6) terminal to body ground with jumper wires The left
mirror should tilt down (or swing left) when the ignition
switch is turned ON (ll)
. lf the mirror does not tilt down (or does not swing left),
remove the left door panel. and check for an open in
the BLU/WHT (or BLU/BLK) wire between the left
power mirror and the switch
- lf the wire is OK. check the left power mirror actua-
tor.
lf the mirror neither tilts down nor swings left. repair
the YEURED wire.
lf the mirror operates properly, check the mirror switch'
Right mirror inoperative:
Connect the No. 2 (BLK /EL) terminal of the 10P connector
to the No. 3 (YEURED) terminal and the No. 9 (or No 8)
terminal to body ground with jumper wires The right mir-
ror should tilt down (or swing left) when the ignition
switch is turned ON (ll).
. lf the mirror does not tilt down (or does not swlng
left), remove the right door panel. and check for an
open in the GRN/WHT (or YEUBLK) wire between the
right power mirror and the switch.
- lf the wire is OK, check the right power marror actu-
ator.
. lf the mirror neither tilts down nor swings left. repair
the YEURED wire
. lf the mirror operates properly, check the mirror
switch.

Laft mirror inopcrativ!:
Connect the No. 1 terminal to the No. 7 terminal. and theNo. 4 (or Nb.9) terminalto body ground with jumper
wires. The left mirror should tilt down (or swing left)with the ignition switch ON (ll).
. lf the mirror does not tilt down (o. does not swinglett), check for an open in the YEURED (or BLUMHT)wire between the left mirror and the 10p connector. lfthe wire is OK, check the left mirror actuator.a lf the mirror neither tilts down nor swings left, repairthe BLU/BLK wire.
t lf the mirror works properly, check the mirror switch.
Right mi.ror inopcrativc:
Connect the No. 1 terminal to the No. 8 terminal, and theNo.4 (or No. 10) terminalto body ground with l'umperwi.es. The right mirror should tilt down (or swing lett)with the ignition switch ON (ll).
. lf the mirror does not tilt down {or does not swingleft), check for an open in the YEURED {or YEUBLK)
wire between the right mirror and the l0P connector.lf the wire is OK, check the right mirror actuator,. lf the mirror neither tilts down nor swings left, repairthe GRN/WHT wire.o lf the mirror works properly. check the mirro. switch,
Dafoggcr inoperEtivo:
1. Check for voltage between the No. 3 terminal andbody ground with the ignition switch ON (||).
There should be battery voltage.a lf there is no battery voltage, check for;- blown No. 16 (7.5 A) luse in the under-dash
fuse/rel8y box,- An open in the BLK,iBLU wire.. It there is battery voltage, go to step 2.
2. Connsct the No. 3 tsrminal to the No. 6 terminalwith a iumpsr wire. Both mirrors should gradually
warm up when the ignition switch ON flt).a lf neither mirror warms up, check for an open inthe ORN/WHT wire.. It only on€ lails to warm up, check its mirrordsfogger elem6nt.. lf both mirrors warm up, check ths switch.

SRS components are located in this area. Review the SRS component locations, precautions, and procedures in the SRSsection (24) before performing repairs or service.
1. Remove the driver's dashboard lower cover and knee bolster (see section 20).
2. Disconnect the l4P connector from the control unit.
3. Inspect the connector and socket terminals to be sure they are all making good contact.
lf the terminals are bent, loose, or corroded, repair them as necessary, and recheck the system.lf the terminals look OK, make the following inpul tests at the connecror.- lf any test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system,- lf all the input tests prove OK, the control unit must be faulty; replace it.
