Funstion Test (cont'dl
With dcfoggcr:
1. Pry the switch out ot the driver's dashboard lowercover.
2. Disconnect the 10P coonector from the oower mir-ror switch.
Mirror Test
Bolh inoparrtiv.:
1. Check for voltage between the No. 1 terminal andbody ground with the ignition switch ON flt).There should be battery voltage.. lf there is no battery voltage, check to.:- blown No. 16 (7.5 A) fuse in the under-dash
tuse/relay box.- an open in the BLVBLU wrre.
! lf thero is banery voltage, go to step 2.
2. Check for continuity b€tween the No. 2 terminal andbody ground.
There should be continuitv.. ll there is no continuity, check tor:- an open in the BLK wire.- poor ground (G5511.
. lJthere is continuity. check both mirrors individu-ally 8s described in the next column,
23-210
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.
