System Description

  1. When switching the door mirror remote control switch position (LH/RH), the system moves driver or passenger door mirror face downward, in relation to the A/T selector lever being shifted to Reverse Position.
  2. The mirror position with the reverse gear engaged can be adjusted and the adjusted mirror position can be stored in memory (2 positions).
  3. With reverse gear-linked operation signal, the driver side door mirror control unit (LCU 03) and passenger side door mirror control unit (LCU 04) installed on the door panel drives and controls the motors (UP/ DOWN, LH/RH).
  4. Using the self-diagnostic function and CONSULT-II, system diagnosis can be performed.

Operation Conditions

If all of the following conditions are satisfied, starts operating after approximately 0.5 seconds.

  1. Ignition switch is in ON position.
  2. Set the door mirror remote control switch to the right position, or left position.
  3. A/T selector lever is in R position.

Note. If the conditions for reverse gear-linked operation are satisfied during manual operation, the manual operation is interrupted and switched to the reverse gear-linked operation.

Scheme 149

Scheme 149: Fixed operation angle

End of Operation

If the following conditions is satisfied, the reverse gear-linked operation is stopped.

  1. When the set angle is reached.
  2. When no operation signal or no operation end signal can be received for approximately 2 seconds or more after BCM actually outputs the reverse gear- linked operation signal.
  3. After receiving the operation signal from the door mirror control unit, when BCM has stayed in the status for 60 seconds.

Return Operation

If one of the following conditions is satisfied, the mirror face returns upward.

  1. When the ignition switch is turned OFF.
  2. When the A/T selector lever is shifted to any position except R position.
  3. When the door mirror remote control switch is in the neutral position.

Note. After the above operation, if no operation conditions previously mentioned are satisfied, shifting the A/T selector lever to R position will not move the mirror face downward.

End of Return Operation

  1. Mirror face returns to the original position.
  2. When no operation signal or no operation end signal can be received for approximately 2 seconds or more after BCM actually outputs the reverse gear- linked operation signal.
  3. After receiving the operation signal from the door mirror control unit, when BCM has stayed in the status for 60 seconds.

Memory Operation Conditions

The seat and steering wheel positions are in accordance with memory 1 or memory 2 in the automatic drive position control. Refer to "AUTOMATIC DRIVE POSITIONER ".

Memory Operation Procedure

  1. Turn ignition switch ON.
  2. Shift the A/T selector lever to R position.
  3. Switch the door mirror remote control switch to right or left, and set the mirror face to the desired angle.
  4. Press the setting button, and within 5 seconds, press the memory switch which stores the current seat and steering wheel positions for 0.5 seconds or more.
  5. If the memory switch with certain positions stored is used, it turns off for 0.5 seconds after the operation, and after that it illuminates continuously (for Pyrex. 5 seconds).
  6. If a memory switch with no positions stored is used, it illuminates (for Pyrex. 5 seconds) after the memory switch operation.

Operation Procedure

  1. Touch "IVMS-COMM CHECK" on "SELECT TEST ITEM".
  2. Touch "IVMS-COMM DIAGNOSIS" on "SELECT DIAG ITEM" screen.
  3. Touch "START" on "IVMS-COMM DIAGNOSIS" screen to start the diagnosis.
  4. After the diagnosis is completed, the malfunctioning system is displayed.
  5. When the malfunctioning items are displayed, touch "PRINT" to record.
  6. Touch "ERASE".
  7. Carry out the communication inspection again to check that any malfunctioning item is displayed.
  8. Check the displayed items.

Wake-Up Diagnosis

The wake-up diagnosis is carried out when BCM detects the wake-up signal from each local unit (LCU). When the switch shown on the screen is operated as instructed, each local control unit (LCU) outputs the wake-up signal. If BCM cannot detect a wake-up signal, it is judged malfunctioning. The malfunctioning local control unit (LCU) is displayed on the screen.

  1. Touch "IVMS-COMM CHECK" on "SELECT TEST ITEM" screen.
  2. Touch "WAKE-UP DIAGNOSIS" on "SELECT DIAG ITEM" screen.
  3. Touch "START" on "WAKE-UP DIAGNOSIS" screen to start the diagnosis.
  4. Touch "NEXT" to select the local control unit (LCU) to be diagnosed.
  5. Check that any malfunction is displayed. If necessary, touch "PRINT" to record.
  6. Carry out the inspection to the malfunctioning item.

Scheme 152: Trouble Diagnosis Chart

Note. For a specific local control unit (LCU), either "PAST COMM DATA" or "PAST NO RESPONSE" may be displayed instead of the above results. The data record, causes this, so erase the records. (The display only shows the incident records, they are not malfunctions caused during the diagnosis. One possible cause is that an intermittent incident occurred.) Follow the steps below to erase the memory. Carry out either disconnect BCM battery power supply or erase memory with CONSULT-II. With the battery connected, if the local control unit (LCU) connector is disconnected and left for approximately 1 minute, the BCM stores "NO RESPONSE" record.

  1. Touch "AUTO DRIVE POSITIONER" on "SELECT TEST ITEM" screen.
  2. Touch "SELF-DIAG RESULTS" on "SELECT DIAG MODE" screen.
  3. Touch "START" on "SELF-DIAG RESULTS" screen.
  4. The seat and steering wheel automatically move, and the self-diagnosis for the seat, steering wheel and door mirror start (door mirror does not operate).
  5. Within 15 seconds after the self-diagnosis for the seat, steering wheel and door mirror are completed, drive the vehicle at a speed of 7 km/h(4 MPH) or higher for the vehicle speed sensor self-diagnosis.
  6. After the diagnosis is completed, the malfunctioning system is displayed.
  7. When the malfunctioning items are displayed, touch "COPY" to record.
  8. Touch "ERASE".
