c. Connect the positive (+) lead from the voltmeter to terminal 9 and the negative (-) lead to terminal 11.







d. Apply battery positive voltage to terminals 2 and 6, then check that the voltage gradually changes according to the table while the mirror moves between the upper-most position and lowermost position.
If voltage value is not as specified, replace the motor assembly.




e. Disconnect the 4 leads of the battery and voltmeter.
f. Connect the positive (+) lead from the voltmeter to terminal 10 and negative (-) lead to terminal 11.
