Outer Rear View Mirror





MIRROR: OUTER REAR VIEW MIRROR: INSPECTION

1. INSPECT OUTER MIRROR ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY LH





(a) Apply battery voltage and check the operation of the mirror.

OK:





(a) If the result is not as specified, replace the outer mirror actuator assembly LH.

(b) For each position: Disconnect the battery, set the mirror position by hand, connect the battery, and check the retractable mirror's movement.





OK:





NOTICE:
* Disconnect and reconnect the battery between each mirror position check.
* The mirror position cannot be changed manually when the battery is connected. To change the mirror position manually, the battery must be disconnected first.
(b) If the result is not as specified, replace the outer mirror actuator assembly LH.

(c) Check the mirror position sensor.





(1) Apply battery and dry cell battery voltage to the terminals as shown in the table below.

(2) Measure the voltage while the mirror moves between the fully downward and fully upward positions.

Standard voltage:





(2) If the result is not as specified, replace the outer mirror actuator assembly LH.

(3) Measure the voltage while the mirror moves between the fully turned to the left and fully turned to the right positions.





Standard voltage:





(3) If the result is not as specified, replace the outer mirror actuator assembly LH.

(d) Check the mirror heater.





(1) Measure the resistance between terminals 4 and 12 of the connector.

Standard resistance:

3.6 to 4.8 Ohms at 25°C (75°F)

(2) Apply battery voltage and check the operation of the mirror heater.

OK:





HINT
It will take a short time for the mirror to become warm.

(2) If the result is not as specified, replace the mirror assembly.

2. INSPECT OUTER MIRROR ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY RH





(a) Apply battery voltage and check the operation of the mirror.

OK:





(a) If the result is not as specified, replace the outer mirror actuator assembly RH.

(b) For each position: Disconnect the battery, set the mirror position by hand, connect the battery, and check the retractable mirror's movement.





OK:





NOTICE:
* Disconnect and reconnect the battery between each mirror position check.
* The mirror position cannot be changed manually when the battery is connected. To change the mirror position manually, the battery must be disconnected first.
(b) If the result is not as specified, replace the outer mirror actuator assembly RH.

(c) Check the mirror position sensor.
