Circuit/System Description
The Driver Door Switch (DDS) or Passenger Door Switch (PDS) controls the mirror horizontal and vertical motors through the use of bi-directional motor controls. When the mirror is commanded up, voltage is supplied to the mirror vertical motor through the Driver/Passenger Mirror Motor Right/Down Motors Common circuit and ground is supplied through the Driver/Passenger Mirror Motor Down Control circuit. When the mirror is commanded down, voltage is supplied to the mirror vertical motor through the Driver/Passenger Mirror Motor Down Control circuit and ground is supplied through the Driver/Passenger Mirror Motor Right/Down Motors Common circuit.
Horizontal controls operate in the same manner with the Driver/Passenger Mirror Motor Right/Down Motors Common circuit supplying voltage and the Driver/Passenger Mirror Motor Right Control circuit supply a ground to the mirror horizontal motor when the mirror is commanded right. When the mirror is commanded left, voltage is supplied to the mirror horizontal motor through the Driver/Passenger Mirror Motor Right Control circuit and ground is supplied through the Driver/Passenger Mirror Motor Right/Down Motors Common circuit.
Conditions for Running the DTC
The power mirror is being commanded left, right, up, or down.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
B1544
An improper voltage level is detected on the Driver/Passenger Mirror Motor Right/Down Motors Common circuit while the mirror is being commanded.
B1600
An improper voltage level is detected on the Driver/Passenger Mirror Motor Down Control circuit while the mirror is being commanded.
B1605
An improper voltage level is detected on the Driver/Passenger Mirror Motor Right Control circuit while the mirror is being commanded.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
Mirror movement is suspended so long as the fault is present.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
| • | A current DTC will clear when the fault is no longer present. |
| • | A history DTC will clear after 40 malfunction-free ignition cycles. |

Circuit/System Verification
Command the left and right outside mirror to move up, down, left and right using the mirror directional switch. The mirror should move in the commanded direction.
Circuit/System Testing
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector C3 at the appropriate door switch.
- Ignition ON, verify a test lamp does not illuminate between the following control circuit terminals and ground:
- Ignition OFF, test for infinite resistance between the following control circuits and ground:
- Test for 40-100 ohms of resistance between the control circuit terminal 1 and the control circuit terminal 6.
- Test for 40-100 ohms of resistance between the control circuit terminal 2 and the control circuit terminal 6.
- If all circuits test normal, replace the appropriate door switch.
| • | Control circuit terminal 1 |
| • | Control circuit terminal 2 |
| • | Control circuit terminal 6 |
| ⇒ | If the test lamp illuminates, test the appropriate control circuit for a short to voltage. |
| • | Control circuit terminal 1 |
| • | Control circuit terminal 2 |
| • | Control circuit terminal 6 |
| ⇒ | If less the specified value, test the appropriate control circuit for a short to ground. |
| ⇒ | If not within the specified range, test both control circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuits test normal, test or replace the rearview mirror motor. |
| ⇒ | If not within the specified range, test both control circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuits test normal, test or replace the rearview mirror motor. |
Repair Instructions
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
