STANDARD PROCEDURE - WELLNUT
REPLACEMENT
Vehicles equipped with a power sliding door utilize
wellnuts. These wellnuts are used to hold and isolate
the power sliding door motor to and from the door
inner panel. The wellnut functions like a expandable
rubber core plug, as the screw fastener is threaded
into the wellnut and tightened the wellnuts diameter
increases. This secures the door motor assembly to
the inner panel and keeps the audible motor vibra-
tions to a minimum. If a wellnut shows signs of wear,
it must be replaced. Follow the procedure below if
replacement is necessary.
(1) Remove the door motor from the door inner
panel. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER DOORS/
MOTOR - REMOVAL) .
(2) Remove the wellnuts from the inner panel by
pulling them straight out (Fig. 4). If a wellnut is dif-
ficult to remove, use a high leverage cutting tool to
cut the wellnut in half and remove the two halves
from the door assembly.
(3) Install the replacement wellnuts in the inner
panel and install the door motor(Refer to 8 - ELEC-
TRICAL/POWER DOORS/MOTOR - INSTALLA-
TION) .
CAUTION: Be certain to use the correct torque
specification (35 in.lbs.) when installing the door
motor retaining screws.
STANDARD PROCEDURE - POWER DOOR
LEARN CYCLE
Any time a power side door component is removed,
replaced, door adjustment is performed or diagnostic
trouble codes are addressed and erased, a learn cycle
mustbe performed. This learn cycle enables the
power side door control module to learn or relearn its
critical information (travel limits, resistance to door
travel, etc.) which allows it to perform properly and
safely. It also tells the technician that the system is
performing properly and is able to be returned to ser-
vice. To perform a power door learn cycle do the fol-
lowing:
(1) Obtain a DRB IIItscan tool.
Connect the DRB IIItto the vehicle and check for
any power side door system stored diagnostic trouble
codes, erase any stored codes. Operate the system
and check to see if any trouble codes return. If any
diagnostic trouble codes return, diagnose, correct and
erase the codes before performing the learn cycle. If a
DRB IIItscan tool is not available, the learn cycle
can be performed by opening and closing the power
side door using any of the normal open/close com-
mand switches. Be certain to cycle the side door
through a complete openandclose cycle or the pro-
cedure will not be complete.
(2) Using the DRB IIIt, Go into Test Routine
Menu and select a power open command.
(3) Select a power close command.
(4) The power side door learn cycle is complete.
NOTE: If the power side door will not complete a
full cycle a problem exists with the power side door
system. Refer to Power Side Door Diagnosis and
Testing.
STANDARD PROCEDURE - SLIDING DOOR
ADJUSTMENT
In order for the power sliding door system to func-
tion properly the door must move freely and
smoothly. The power sliding door system can accom-
modate for some minor changes in the effort required
to move the door. However, in extreme conditions the
door may need to be mechanically adjusted for proper
fit. (Refer to 23 - BODY/DOORS - SLIDING/SLID-
ING DOOR - ADJUSTMENTS) .
If a problem exists with the power sliding door and
it is suspected to be extreme effort, check for proper
door alignment and adjustment first, then check the
door tracks and drive unit for free manual operation.
Use a known good vehicle for side door comparison
data. Refer to the Side Door Adjustment procedure in
the Body section of the service manual for detailed
instructions.

POWER MIRRORS
DESCRIPTION
If equipped with power mirrors, the control switch
is located on the instrument panel to the left of the
headlamp switch.
OPERATION
The power mirrors are connected to battery feed at
all times. Each mirror head contains two electric
motors, two drive mechanisms, an electric heating
element, and the mirror glass. If the vehicle is
equipped with the optional memory system, each
mirror head also contains both a horizontal and a
vertical motor position sensor. One motor and drive
controls mirror up-and-down movement, and the
other controls right-and-left movement.
An optional driver side outside electrochromic mir-
ror is able to automatically change its reflectance
level. This mirror is controlled by the circuitry of the
automatic day/night inside rear view mirror. A thin
layer of electrochromic material between two pieces
of conductive glass make up the face of the mirror.
Two photocell sensors on the inside rear view mirror
are used to monitor light levels and adjust the reflec-tance of both the inside and driver side outside mir-
rors. This change in reflectance helps to reduce the
glare of headlamps approaching the vehicle from the
rear. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER MIRRORS/
AUTOMATIC DAY / NIGHT MIRROR - DESCRIP-
TION) for more information on this system.
The motors which operate the mirrors are part of
the mirror assembly and cannot be serviced sepa-
rately.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - POWER MIRRORS
(1) Remove Power Mirror Switch. (Refer to 8 -
ELECTRICAL/POWER MIRRORS/POWER MIRROR
SWITCH - REMOVAL).
(2) Disconnect wiring harness connector to the
power mirror switch and headlamp switch.
(3) Using two jumper wires:
²Connect one to a 12-volt source
²Connect the other to a good body ground
²Refer to the Mirror Test Chart for wire hookups
at the switch connector (Fig. 1).
(4) If results shown in table are not obtained,
check for broken or shorted circuit, or replace mirror
assembly as necessary.
RSPOWER MIRRORS8N-45

The windshield wiper motor and linkage is located
in an integral wiper unit at the rear of the engine
compartment. The wiper unit must be removed to
gain access to the wiper motor.
REAR WIPER/WASHER SYSTEM
When continuous rear wiper operation is required,
the Body Control Module (BCM) will provide ignition
ON voltage to the rear wiper motor. When the wiper
switch is turned OFF, the BCM provides circuit
ground to operate the motor until the wipe cycle is
complete and the wiper arm returns to the base of
the rear window.
When intermittent rear wiper mode is selected, the
wiper motor will cycle every 7 seconds. The intermit-
tent delay time is also adjusted based upon vehicle
speed. With the vehicle traveling greater at 50 mph,
the cycle changes to every 5 seconds. DIAGNOSIS
AND TESTING
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - FRONT WIPER
SYSTEM
The windshield wiper system operates in several
modes:
²Low and high speed normal wipe
²Speed sensitive intermittent wipe
²Wipe after wash
²Pulse wipe
²Park (switch OFF)
The windshield wiper circuits are continuously
monitored and controlled by the Body Control Mod-
ule (BCM). If a problem occurs in the electronic com-
ponents, wiring, switch (except integral motor park
switch) and wiper motor a Diagnostic Trouble Code
(DTC) will be stored in the BCM memory. DTC's can
be retrieved using a DRB IIItscan tool. Refer to the
proper Body Diagnostic Procedures manual for DTC
descriptions and retrieval information.
The windshield wiper park switch and circuit is
monitored by the BCM. The park switch and circuit
can be tested using the Wiper System Diagnosis
table.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - ENGINE OIL LEAK
Begin with a thorough visual inspection of the
engine, particularly at the area of the suspected leak.
If an oil leak source is not readily identifiable, the
following steps should be followed:
(1) Do not clean or degrease the engine at this
time because some solvents may cause rubber to
swell, temporarily stopping the leak.
(2) Add an oil soluble dye (use as recommended by
manufacturer). Start the engine and let idle for
approximately 15 minutes. Check the oil dipstick to
make sure the dye is thoroughly mixed as indicated
with a bright yellow color under a black light.
(3) Using a black light, inspect the entire engine
for fluorescent dye, particularly at the suspected area
of oil leak. If the oil leak is found and identified,
repair as necessary.(4) If dye is not observed, drive the vehicle at var-
ious speeds for approximately 24 km (15 miles), and
repeat inspection.
(5)If the oil leak source is not positively
identified at this time, proceed with the air leak
detection test method as follows:
²Disconnect the fresh air hose (make-up air) at
the cylinder head cover and plug or cap the nipple on
the cover.
²Remove the PCV valve hose from the cylinder
head cover. Cap or plug the PCV valve nipple on the
cover.
²Attach an air hose with pressure gauge and reg-
ulator to the dipstick tube.
CAUTION: Do not subject the engine assembly to
more than 20.6 kpa (3 PSI) of test pressure.
