      NOTE:
      • 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.

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

    3. Check the mirror heater.
      1. Measure the resistance between terminals 4 and 12 of the connector.

        Standard resistance: 3.6 to 4.0 Ω at 25°C (75°F) 

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

        OK 

        TERMINALS 4 AND 12

        Measurement Condition Specified Condition
        Battery positive (+) → Terminal 4 (HTR+)
        Battery negative (-) → Terminal 12 (HTR-)        		 Mirror becomes warm

        HINT:

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

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

  2. INSPECT OUTER REAR VIEW MIRROR ASSEMBLY RH 
    1. Apply battery voltage and check the operation of the mirror.

      OK
