Heated Mirrors






900A-MIRROR HEATER CIRCUIT HIGH - DDM

For a complete wiring diagram refer to Diagrams/Electrical.





Theory of Operation

The Driver Door Module will operate the heated mirrors automatically whenever the ambient air temperature is below approximately 55 degrees.

- When Monitored:

Whenever the module is awake.

- Set Condition:

When the driver door module does not sense any current flow through the internal driver for the heated mirrors, when the heated mirrors are activated, this code will set.






Diagnostic Test

1. TEST FOR INTERMITTENT CONDITION

Turn the ignition on.

With the scan tool, record and erase DTC's.

With the scan tool actuate the Heated Mirrors.

Wait 30 seconds.

With the scan tool, read DTC's.

Does the scan tool display 900A-MIRROR HEATER CIRCUIT HIGH?

Yes

- Go To 2

No

- The conditions that caused this code to set are not present at this time. Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Verification Tests
