2002 HONDA CIVIC ignition

Rear Window Defogger
Function Test
NOTE:. Be careful not to scratch or damage the defogger
wires with the tester probe.
. Before testing, check the No. 11 (30A) fuse in the
under-hood fuse/relay box and No. '14 ('10A) fuse in
the under-dash fuse/relay box.
1. Check for voltage between the ve rtica I dividersand
body ground with the ignition switch and defogger
switch ON.
There should be voltage as shown.
. lf there is no voltage. checkfor:- faulty defogger relay.- an open in the BLK, BLK,/YEL, or YEL/BLK wire.- taulty heater control panel.
. lf there is battery voltage, goto step 2.
6V
Check for continuity between the negative terminal(B) and body ground.
lf there is no continuity, check for:. an open in the BLK wire.. Poor body ground at the window antenna coil
mounting bolt.
Touch the voltmeter positive probe to the halfway
point of each defogger wire. and the negative
probe to the negative terminal,
There should be about 6 V with the ignition switch
and the defogger switch ON.
. lf thevoltage is asspecified, the defoggerwlre is
oK.. lf the voltage is not as specified, repair the
defogger wire.- lf it is more than 6 V, there is a break in the
negative half of the wire.- lf it is less than 6 V, there is a break in the
positive half of the wire.

Defogger Wire Repair
NOTE: To make an effective repair, the broken section
must be no longer than one inch.
1. Lightly rub the area around the broken section (A)
with fine steel wool, then clean it with alcohol.
Carefully mask above and below the broken portion
of the defogger wire (B) with transparent tape {C).
Mix the silver conductive paint thoroughly. Using a
small brush, apply a heavy coat of paint extending
about 1/8 inch on both sides of the break. Allow 30
minutes to dry.
Check for continuity in the repaired wire.
Apply a second coat of paint in the same way. Let it
dry 3 hours before removing the tape.

3. Disconnectthe'13P connector (B) from the switch.
4. Choose the appropriate test based on the
symptom:. Both mirrors don't work, go to step 5.. Left mirror doesn't work, go to step 7.. Right mirror doesn't work, go to step 8.. Defogger doesn't work (Canada), go to step 9.
Both mirrors
5. Check for voltage between the No. 2 terminal and
body ground with the ignitlon switch ON (ll).
There should be battery voltage.. lf there is no battery voltage, check for:- blown No. 14 (10A) fuse in the under'dash
fuse/relay box.- an open in the BLKryEL wire.. lf there is battery voltage, goto step 6.
6. Check for continuity between the No. 6 terminal
and body ground.
There should be continuity.. lf there is no continuity, check for:- an open in the BLK wire.- poor ground (G501).
. lf there is continuity, check both mirrors
individually as described in the next column.

7. Connect the No. 2 terminal totheNo. l0terminal,
and the No. 5 (or No. 12) terminal to the No. 6
terminal with jumper wires. The left mirror should
tilt down (or swing left)with the ignition switch ON

conneclor, lf the wire is OK, check the left m irror
actualor.. lf the mirror neithertilts down nor swings left.

Right mirror
8. Connect the No. 2 terminalto the No. 11 terminal,
and the No. 5 {or No. 13) terminal to the No. 6
terminal with jumper wires. The right mirror should
tilt down (or swing left)with the ignition switch ON
(

).. lf the mirror does not tilt down (or does not swing
left), check for an open in the GRN/WHT (or WHT/
RED)wire between the right mirror and the 13P
connector.
lf the wire is OK, check the right mirror actuator.. lf the mirrorneithertiltsdown norswings left,
repalr the RED|YEL wire.' lf the mirrorworks properly. checkthe mirror
swrrcn.

9. Connect the No. 1 and No. I terminals with a
jumper wire, and check for voltage between the
No. 2 terminal of the mirror connector and body
ground. There should be battery voltage and both
mirrors should warm up with the ignition switch
oN

t).. lf there is novoltage orneitherwarms up, check
for:- an open in the BLKI/EL or oRN wire.- blown No. 14 ('l0A)fuse in the under-dash
fuse/relay box.. lf only one fails to warm up, check:- its defogger.- poor ground (G501, G502). lf both warm up, checkthedefoggerswitch.

Carefully pry the accessory power socket (A) out
from the center lower cover.
Disconnect the 2P connector (B) from the socket.
Inspect the connector terminals to be sure they are
all making good contact.
. lf the terminals are bent, loose orcorroded,
repairthem as necessary, and recheck the
system.. lf the terminals look OK, go to step 4.
Turn the ignition switch ACC (l), and check for
voltage between the No. 'l and No. 2 terminals.
