Checking for a short-circuit

If the car is equipped with a 10-pin connector
Check the cable between door control module terminal #14A and power door mirror connector terminal #1. Check for a short-circuit to ground.

If the car is equipped with a 16-pin connector
Check the cable between door control module terminal #14A and power door mirror connector terminal #2. Check for a short-circuit to ground.
Replace the cable if a fault is found.
Try a new outside temperature sensor if no fault was found.
