1. Remove power mirror switch from mounting position
(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER MIRRORS/POWER FOLDAWAY MIRROR SWITCH - REMOVAL).
2. Using an ohmmeter, test for continuity between the terminals of the switch as shown in the tables below.

NOTE: When testing using the chart below be certain to read the chart correctly. Example - When testing left mirror “DOWN↓”, pins 1, 9, 10 will show continuity to each other but not with 3, 4, 5.


3. If test results are not obtained as shown in the tables below, replace the switch.
