Function Test

NOTE:
  • For additional troubleshooting information on the Driving Position Memory System (DPMS), refer to the DPMS article (see COMPONENT LOCATION INDEX ).
  • The right power mirror is controlled by the front passenger's power window switch. When the power mirror switch is operated, the door multiplex control unit receives the signals from the power mirror switch and sends the signals to the front passenger's power window switch. If the right power mirror actuator malfunctions, do the door multiplex control unit input test (see POWER WINDOW MASTER SWITCH INPUT TEST  ) and front passenger's power window switch input test (see FRONT PASSENGER'S POWER WINDOW SWITCH INPUT TEST  ).

Left Power Mirror Function Test 

  1. Remove the power window master switch (see POWER WINDOW MASTER SWITCH INPUT TEST  ).
  2. Disconnect the 13P connector (A) from the power mirror switch (B) and 37P connector (C) from the power window master switch (D).

  3. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
  4. Measure the voltage between body ground and terminal No. 4 of the power mirror switch 13P connector with the ignition switch ON (II). There should be battery voltage.
    • If there is no battery voltage, check for:
      • Blown No. C26 (7.5 A) fuse in the driver's under-dash fuse/relay box.
      • Faulty IG2 cut relay.
      • An open in the LT GRN wire.
    • If there is battery voltage, go to step 5.
  5. Check for continuity between terminal No. 13 and body ground. There should be continuity.
    • If there is no continuity, check for:
      • Poor ground (G401).
      • An open in the BLK wire.
    • If there is continuity, go to step 6.
  6. Connect terminals No. 4 and No. 9, and terminals No. 1 (or No. 7) and No. 13 with jumper wires. The left mirror should tilt down (or swing left) with the ignition switch in ON (II).
    • If the left mirror does not tilt down (or does not swing left), check for an open in the RED (or PNK) wire between the left mirror and the 13P connector. If the wire is OK, check the left mirror actuator.
    • If the mirror does not tilt down or swing to the left, repair the PUR wire.
    • If the mirror works properly, check the mirror switch.
