The electric drive of external rear-view mirrors - general information and check of serviceability of functioning

In most cases for a drive of a lateral rear-view mirror two electromotors are used: one provides adjustment of provision of a mirror in the vertical plane, the second - in horizontal. In addition, on some models the electroheating of mirrors working at inclusion of heating of back glass is provided.

The switch of management of the electric drive is equipped with the selector knot providing a choice of the direction of giving of tension (on right or on the left mirror). Without starting the engine, turn the ignition key in the situation ON, lower door glasses and test all modes of functioning of the electric drive of both lateral mirrors.

Attentively listen to published by electromotors of a drive of mirrors to sounds.

If aurally the motor works regularly, however the mirror does not change the situation, probably, defect of the driving mechanism in a mirror takes place. Remove the corresponding mirror and disassemble it for search of a cause of failure.

If mirrors do not function and motors of their drives do not publish any sounds, check a condition of the corresponding safety lock (see. Head of Control and routine maintenance).

If a safety lock as it should be, remove from the support the switch of management of functioning of the electric drive of mirrors (do not disconnect electroconducting). Include ignition and check serviceability of giving of a food on the switch. Tension should take place on one of plugs of the socket of the switch, otherwise check a condition of connecting electroconducting on a site between the switch and the assembly block of safety locks.

If a food moves regularly, disconnect electroconducting and check correctness of distribution of provodimost between switch plugs in its various provisions (see. Section Check of serviceability of functioning and replacement of switches of the dashboard). The faulty switch replace.

Restore initial connection of electroconducting and find a wire of grounding of assembly of the switch. Duplicate grounding by a wire crossing point. If now the motor starts to function, it is necessary to restore quality of grounding of assembly on weight.

If grounding as it should be, and a drive still does not operate, remove assembly of a mirror and check serviceability of giving of supply voltage on it. Include ignition and transfer the selector switch of assembly of management to adjustment of the corresponding mirror. When moving a key of adjustment of provision of a mirror to any of working provisions on a drive of the last tension should move.

At identification of violations in giving of a food check an electroconducting condition on a site between the switch and a drive.

If tension moves regularly, remove a mirror and check serviceability of functioning of a drive by a direct zapityvaniye it from the battery. A faulty mirror replace.
