Inspection Procedure

  1. CHECK OUTER REAR VIEW MIRROR ASSY LH (FROM UPPERMOST POSITION TO LOWERMOST POSITION MIRROR SENSORS VOLTAGE) 
    1. Check the mirror position sensors operation.
      1. Connect the positive lead from the voltmeter to terminal VSRL (M3-6) and the negative lead to terminal E1 (M3-14).
      2. Check that the voltage gradually changes according to the table below while the mirror moves from the uppermost position to lowermost position.
      1. Standard: 
      MIRROR UPPERMOST & LOWERMOST POSITION

      Mirror position Lowermost -> Uppermost
      Voltage 2.8 - 5.0 Changes gradually 0 - 1.0

      NG: REPLACE OUTER REAR VIEW MIRROR ASSY LH

  2. CHECK OUTER REAR VIEW MIRROR ASSY LH (FROM LEFT-MOST POSITION TO RIGHT-MOST POSITION MIRROR SENSORS VOLTAGE) 
    1. Check the mirror position sensors operation.
      1. Connect the positive lead from the voltmeter to terminal HSRL (M3-13) and the negative lead to terminal E1 (M3-14).
      2. Check that the voltage gradually changes according to the table below while the mirror moves from the left-most position to right-most position.
        1. Standard: 
        MIRROR LEFTMOST & RIGHTMOST POSITION

        Mirror position Left-most -> Right-most
        Voltage 2.8 - 5.0 Changes gradually 0 - 1.0

      NG: REPLACE OUTER REAR VIEW MIRROR ASSY LH

    2. CHECK WIRE HARNESS (OUTER MIRROR CONTROL ECU - OUTER REAR VIEW MIRROR LH) 
      1. Disconnect the M3 outer rear view mirror and M2 outer mirror control ECU connectors.
      2. Check the continuity between connectors.
        1. Standard: 
        TERMINAL SPECIFICATION

        Symbols (Terminal No.) (Mirror - Mirror ECU) Specified condition
        VSRL <=> VSRL (M3-6 <=> M2-8) Continuity
        HSRL <=> HSRL (M3-13 <=> M2-9) Continuity
        E1 <=> E1 (M3-14 <=> M2-19) Continuity

      NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE WIRE HARNESS AND CONNECTOR 

      OK: REPLACE OUTER MIRROR CONTROL ECU ASSY 

    3. CHECK OUTER REAR VIEW MIRROR ASSY RH (FROM UPPERMOST POSITION TO LOWERMOST POSITION MIRROR SENSORS VOLTAGE) 
      1. Check the mirror position sensors operation.
        1. Connect the positive lead from the voltmeter to terminal VSSR (M4-6) and the negative lead to terminal E1 (M4-14).
        2. Check that the voltage gradually changes according to the table below while the mirror moves between the uppermost position and lowermost position.
          1. Standard: 
          MIRROR LOWERMOST & UPPER MOST POSITION

          Mirror position Lowermost -> Uppermost
          Voltage 2.8 - 5.0 Changes gradually 0 - 1.0

        NG: REPLACE OUTER REAR VIEW MIRROR ASSY RH

      2. CHECK OUTER REAR VIEW MIRROR ASSY RH (FROM UPPERMOST POSITION TO LOWERMOST POSITION MIRROR SENSORS VOLTAGE) 
        1. Check the mirror potion sensors operation.
          1. Connect the positive lead from the voltmeter to terminal HSSR (M4-13) and the negative lead to terminal E1 (M4-14).
          2. Check that the voltage gradually changes according to the table below while the mirror moves between the left-most position and right-most position.
            1. Standard: 
            MIRROR LEFTMOST & RIGHTMOST POSITION

            Mirror position Left-most -> Right-most
            Voltage 0 - 1.0 Changes gradually 2.8 - 5.0

          NG: REPLACE OUTER REAR VIEW MIRROR ASSY RH

      3. CHECK WIRE HARNESS (OUTER MIRROR CONTROL ECU - OUTER REAR VIEW MIRROR RH) 
        1. Disconnect the M4 outer rear view mirror and M2 outer mirror control ECU connectors.
        2. Check the continuity between connectors.
          1. Standard: 
          TERMINAL SPECIFICATION

          Symbols (Terminal No.) (Mirror - Mirror ECU) Specified condition
          VSSR <=> VSSR (M4-6 <=> M2-20) Continuity
