POWER MIRRORS
POWER MIRRORS
The power mirrors use a single switch located in
the left door trim panel. The feed for the system is
supplied on circuit Ml from the 15 amp Ignition-Off
Draw (IOD) fuse located in the fuse block cavity 17.
This fuse also supplies power for the radio, interior
lamps and other components. Grounding for the
power mirrors is provided through the Z3 circuit.
SWITCH AND
mmmom
O P E R A T I O N
The power mirror switch has a right and a left po­
sition. Moving the switch to either of these positions
changes the voltage path internal to the switch
(changes polarity at the motors).
When the switch is moved to the LEFT position
and mirror movement UP is selected, voltage is sup­
plied through the P75 circuit and the ground path is
through circuit P73. When the DOWN movement is
selected, the power and ground are reversed.
If a LEFT door mirror movement LEFT is selected,
voltage is supplied through the P71 circuit and the
ground is passed through circuit P73. When the left
door mirror RIGHT movement is selected, the power
and ground are reversed.
When the switch is moved to the RIGHT position
and mirror movement UP is selected, voltage is sup­
plied through the P72 circuit and the ground path is
through circuit P70. When the DOWN movement is
selected, the power and ground are reversed.
If a RIGHT door mirror movement LEFT is se­
lected, voltage is supplied through the P74 circuit
and the ground is passed through circuit P70. When
the left door mirror RIGHT movement is selected,
the power and ground are reversed.
HELPFUL INFORMATION
• Check the IOD fuse located in the fuse block
• Circuit Ml supplies voltage to the radio, cargo
lamp, dome lamp, time delay relay, glove box lamp,
and vanity lamps. Check for proper operation of
these items
• Move the switch to its various positions and listen
for the motors to click or try to move. Some move­
ment or clicking indicates a poor connection or a me­
chanical problem with a mirror
• Check the ground for the power mirror switch
