WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2019 Buick Cascada, 2018 Buick Cascada, and 2017 Buick Cascada. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate A9 Outside Rearview Mirror. Ignition ON
- Connect a test lamp between the control circuit terminal 4 and control circuit terminal 5.
- Verify the test lamp turns ON when commanding the FOLD and UNFOLD states with the S52 Outside Rearview Mirror Switch.
- If the test lamp remains OFF during either of the commands
- Ignition OFF, remove the test lamp, disconnect the harness connector at the S52 Outside Rearview Mirror Switch.
- Test for infinite resistance between each control circuit and ground.
- If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
- Go to next step: If infinite resistance
- Test for less than 2 Ω in each control circuit end to end.
- If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 Ω, test or replace the S52 Outside Rearview Mirror Switch.
- If the test lamp is always ON
- Ignition OFF, remove the test lamp, disconnect the harness connector at the S52 Outside Rearview Mirror Switch, ignition ON.
- Test for less than 1 V between each control circuit and ground.
- If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
- If less than 1 V, test or replace the S52 Outside Rearview Mirror Switch
- Go to next step: If the test lamp turns ON during each of the commands
- Test or replace the A9 Outside Rearview Mirror.
