Solution
1. Preparation
  • Gather tools including a multimeter, screwdriver set, and trim removal tools.
  • Disconnect the battery to ensure safety while working on electrical components.
2. Inspect and Test the Power Mirror Switch
  • Remove the switch panel using a trim removal tool.
  • Disconnect the wiring harness from the switch.
  • Use a multimeter to test for continuity in the switch. If there is no continuity, replace the switch.
3. Check Wiring and Connections
  • Trace the wiring from the switch to the mirrors, inspecting for any signs of damage or corrosion.

4. Test the Mirror Actuator Motor
  • Remove the mirror assembly from the vehicle.
  • Connect the mirror motor directly to a power source (12V battery) to check if the motor operates.
  • If the motor does not function, replace the mirror assembly.
5. Reassemble and Test
  • Reattach the mirror assembly and reconnect the wiring harness.
  • Reinstall the switch panel.
  • Reconnect the battery and test the power mirrors for proper functionality.
