wire color code to the remote mirror switch?

hello, does anyone know the wire color code to the remote mirror switch? my up and down stop working, tried replacing with a new switch but still the same, so I need to do some continuity test...

TIA! it's a 2001 civic LX coupe BTW.

Re: wire color code to the remote mirror switch?

Thank you CraigW! That's exactly what I needed! I track down the culprit and it's the bluegreen wire not sitted in the switched connector. Unforntunately when I try to fix the pin I also bent it pretty bad along with the connector.

Where can I buy the pins and connector? I don't want to buy the whole harness...

Re: wire color code to the remote mirror switch?

My thinking is you have to get sections of harness and the connectors are attached. (Honda parts prices are reasonable in most cases)

Is it the connector at back of switch ?? (if so that may be tough)

If you have a wire on each side of connector available and enough room...You could use insulated spade terminals (male and female) and bypass one wire of the connector.

Re: wire color code to the remote mirror switch?

Just thought I would keep you inform on what happened to my story. long story short, I attached a new pin onto green/white wire and re-insert it into the harness connector, reattach the switch onto the harness. Still no go. At this point I want to re-examine my switch (I did replaced the switch with a brand new one from dealer so I didn't even give it a second thought). all the other contact besides green/white are short to ground when not switch...so I ended up pry open the switch and have a look...bingo!



the PCB has a weak point and I guess the current is too much to handle. So I grabbed a solder iron and solder a wire between the 2 contact, put everything together...and now it works!

Thanks again for the schematics, craigW!
