The driver door module (DDM) and passenger door module (PDM) each provide motor control output functions for their respective mirrors. These output controls allow each door module to command their respective power mirrors in horizontal and vertical positions. The power mirror switch is integrated into DDM. When the DDM detects an active mirror command from the power mirror switch, the DDM will send a GMLAN serial data message to the PDM. Each door module will command there respective mirror motor in the appropriate direction by applying ground or voltage to the control circuit, depending on the desired mirror position. For more detailed information concerning power mirror operation refer to Outside Mirror Description and Operation .
An open on either the low reference circuit or the 5-volt reference circuit may cause incorrect or no movement during parking maneuvers in reverse.

Ignition ON, operate both left and right mirrors to all possible positions with the power mirror switch. Both mirrors should operate as the switch is activated.
⇒ | If one or both of the mirrors does not operate as the switch is activated, refer to Power Mirrors Inoperative . |
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
