or May Be Covered By One or More U.S. Patents.
1) Follow the flowchart in T.4.1 to promptly diagnose mirror heat problems.
2) Remove the mirror glass according to G.5.1. Check to ensure the mirror is heated. (Heater spades
are present.)
3) Make sure all cables and connections are tight.
4) Check to see if the heater terminals are secure. (See Illustration). If not, replace the glass plate
assembly.
5) Using a tester unit, or supplying power to the bracket cable according to T.3, test the function of
the heat from control cable at the door (under the lower cover). If the mirror functions properly, the
fault is cab-internal.
6) Using a tester unit, or supplying power to the heater terminals according to T.3, test the function of
the heat from mirror head. If the heat functions at this point, but not from the control cable, the
problem is in the control cable (inside the bracket). Check the connections, and if necessary
replace the control cable as indicated in the flowchart. Always perform a continuity check (see
T.3) on the control cable and confirm the fault before attempting to replace the control cable.
7) If the mirror fault is not with the control cable, replace the mirror glass according to G.5.
The paint on the bracket and holders is a flexible, weather-resistant powder coating. This coating requires no topcoat. If the paint is chipped or
otherwise damaged, use Dupont paint number 373-P-23290 for repainting of silhouette grey systems. For bright or chrome systems, a matching wet
paint may be used after the surface is sufficiently prepared.
When attaching or detaching the heater
wires, be sure to push or pull on the
white terminal cover. Do not pull on the
wires, or pull up or down on the heater
terminals.
