Door Mirror Remote Control Switch (Mirror Switch) Circuit Check

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Nissan Maxima. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

CHECK FUNCTION

With CONSULT-III

Check operation with "MIR CON SW-UP/DN, MIR CON SW-RH/LH" on the DATA MONITOR to make sure pulse changes.

MIR CON SW MONITOR ITEM CHART

Monitor item [OPERATION or UNIT]		Contents
MIR CON SW-UP	"ON/OFF"	ON/OFF status judged from the door mirror remote control switch (UP) signal is displayed.
MIR CON SW-DN	"ON/OFF"	ON/OFF status judged from the door mirror remote control switch (DOWN) signal is displayed.
MIR CON SW-RH	"ON/OFF"	ON/OFF status judged from the door mirror remote control switch (RIGHT) signal is displayed.
MIR CON SW-LH	"ON/OFF"	ON/OFF status judged from the door mirror remote control switch (LEFT) signal is displayed.

Without CONSULT-III

Turn ignition switch to ACC.
Check voltage between automatic drive positioner control unit connector and ground.

OK or NG

OK: Door mirror remote control switch (mirror switch) circuit is OK.

NG: GO TO 2.

CHECK DOOR MIRROR REMOTE CONTROL SWITCH CIRCUIT HARNESS CONTINUITY
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Disconnect automatic drive positioner control unit and door mirror remote control switch.
3. Check continuity between automatic drive positioner control unit connector M41 terminals 3, 4, 19, 20 and door mirror remote control switch connector M7 terminals 4, 4, 6, 14.
  3 - 6: Continuity should exist.
  
  4 - 5: Continuity should exist.
  
  19 - 14: Continuity should exist.
  
  20 - 4: Continuity should exist.
4. Check continuity between automatic drive positioner control unit connector M41 terminals 3, 4, 19, 20 and ground.
  3 - Ground: Continuity should not exist.
  
  4 - Ground: Continuity should not exist.
  
  19 - Ground: Continuity should not exist.
  
  20 - Ground: Continuity should not exist.
