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.
