On vehicles manufactured prior to production phase-in, the new mirror drive should be installed unless the new mirror drive was already previously
installed. Check the vehicle history to determine if the mirror assembly or the mirror drive motor were replaced after June 30, 1992. If so, do not
continue. If these components were replaced on an earlier date or were never replaced, continue with the procedure in this bulletin.
1.
Using plastic wedge, press off cover, (1, Figure 13) and remove insulation.
2.
Disconnect electrical connector with green and yellow wires (arrows marked "C", Figure 13).
IMPORTANT NOTE:
To determine if a new mirror drive has already been installed in an earlier version mirror housing, check if pin 6 (green wire) and pin 7 (yellow wire) in
the mirror drive connector
(Figure 14) are silver colored instead of gold colored. The old version mirror drive had gold colored pins. If pins are silver colored, do not continue with
disassembly. Reconnect connectors and install cover (1, Figure 13). If pins are gold, disconnect second electrical connector and continue with procedure.
