Rearview Mirror With Rearview Camera Display Input Test

NOTE: The normal operating temperature range of rearview mirror with rearview camera display is -22°F to 176°F (-30°C to 80°C). Allow the inside temperature of the vehicle to stabilize within the normal operating range before testing.
  1. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
  2. Check the auto dimming inside mirror indicator (A). If the indicator flashes 2 times, and then turns on, there is a malfunction in the mirror. Replace it.

  3. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
  4. Remove the roof console (see ROOF CONSOLE INPUT TEST/REPLACEMENT ).
  5. Disconnect the 12P connector (B) from the roof wire harness (C).
  6. Inspect the connector and socket terminals to be sure they are all making good contact.
    • If the terminals are bent, loose, or corroded, repair them as necessary, and recheck the system.
    • If the terminals look OK, go to step 7.
  7. Remove the tailgate lower trim panel (see TRIM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION - TAILGATE AREA ).
  8. With the connector still disconnected, do the following input tests.
    NOTE: Make sure the connector is connected while testing terminals No. 5, No. 6, and No. 12. Make sure the connector is disconnected while testing terminals No. 1, No. 2, No. 3, No. 7, and No. 8.
    • If any test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system.
    • If the input tests prove OK. Substitute and connect a known-good rearview camera and check the monitor image in reverse. If the symptom is gone, the rearview camera is faulty; replace it (see REARVIEW CAMERA REMOVAL/INSTALLATION ). If the symptom is still present, the rearview mirror is faulty; replace it (see REARVIEW MIRROR REPLACEMENT ).
    Cavity Wire Test condition Test: Desired result Possible cause if desired result is not obtained
