DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
INTRODUCTION
Power mirrors are controlled by a single switch
located on the driver’s door. The switch has a rocker
buttons mark L (left) and R (right) for mirror selec-
tion and four buttons for mirror direction movement
(Fig. 1).
The motors which operate the mirrors are part of
the mirror assembly and cannot be replaced sepa-
rately.
The vehicle is equipped with an Ignition Off Draw
Fuse which is used when it is originally shipped from
the factory. This fuse is located in the Junction Block
and helps to prevent battery discharge during stor-
age when disconnected.
This fuse is included in the power mirror circuity
and should be checked if the mirrors are inoperative.
HEATED MIRROR
Heated mirrors are available with Power Mirrors
and Rear Window Defogger only. The heated mirror
is controlled by the rear window defogger switch.
Only time that the heated mirror is on is when the
rear window defogger is on. The mirror should
become warm to the touch.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
HEATED MIRROR
(1) Using a ohmmeter, check Pin 1 of the mirror
motor harness connector for continuity to ground. If
OK, go to Step 2. If not OK, repair as necessary.
Refer to Group 8W, Wiring Diagrams.
(2) Activate the rear window defogger switch, use
a voltmeter and check Pin 2 for battery voltage.
(a) If OK, go to Step 3. If not OK, check fuse 5 &
6 in the Junction Block and also fuse #12 in the
Power Distribution Center and repair as necessary.
(b) Check rear window defogger switch, refer to
Group 8N, Electrically Heated Systems, Rear Win-
dow Defogger. If OK, go to Step c. If not OK,
replace HVAC control.
(c) If no voltage repair wire as necessary. Refer
to Group 8W, Wiring Diagrams.
(3) Remove mirror glass and check wires. If wires
are OK, replace mirror glass. If not OK, repair as
necessary or replace mirror.
