1. INSPECT OUTER MIRROR SWITCH ASSEMBLY
a. Inspect the mirror switch continuity.




1. Left side for left/right adjustment switch:
Inspect the left side mirror switch continuity.
If the continuity is not as specified, replace the switch.




2. Right side for left/right adjustment switch:
Inspect the right side mirror switch continuity.
If the continuity is not as specified, replace the switch.







2. INSPECT OUTER REAR VIEW MIRROR ASSEMBLY LH
a. Inspect the mirror motor operation.




b. Check the electro chromic outer mirror operation.
1. Connect the positive lead from the dry cell battery to terminal 1 and the negative lead to terminal 2, then check that the mirror surface changes to "dark".
2. Check that the mirror turns to "bright" after disconnecting the battery.

c. Check the mirror heater operation.
1. Check the resistance between terminals 4 and 5 of the connector.

Resistance: 3.4 - 4.5 Ohms

2. Check that the mirror is heated up when connecting the battery positive (+) to terminal 4 and the battery negative (-) to terminal 5 of the connector.







3. INSPECT OUTER REAR VIEW MIRROR ASSEMBLY RH
a. Inspect the mirror motor operation.




b. Check the electro chromic outer mirror operation.
1. Connect the positive lead from the dry cell battery to terminal 1 and the negative lead to terminal 2, then check that the mirror surface changes to "dark".
2. Check that the mirror turns to "bright" after disconnecting the battery.
