Dealer Service Instructions for:
Safety Recall P61 / NHTSA 14V-631 Heated Power Side View Mirror Wire Harness
NOTE: The parts section has been updated.
Models
| 2011 – 2013 | (JK) | Jeep Wrangler |
NOTE: This recall applies only to the above vehicles equipped with heated power side view mirrors (sales code GTB) built from February 16, 2010 through July 19, 2013 (MDH 021605 through 071910).
| IMPORTANT: Some of the involved vehicles may be in dealer used vehicle inventory. Dealers should complete this recall service on these vehicles before retail delivery. Dealers should also perform this recall on vehicles in for service.Involved vehicles can be determined by using the VIP inquiry process. |
Subject
The power side view mirrors on about 313,000 of the above vehicles may experience a loss of right and/or left heated power mirror function. Water may travel along the heated power mirror wiring harness and into the heated power mirror electrical connector(s). This can cause corrosion inside the heated mirror connector(s) and the formation of a resistive bridge between the power and ground electrical terminals. A resistive bridge between the power and ground electrical terminals in the heated power mirror connector(s) could cause an electrical fire without warning.
Repair
The heated power mirror electrical connectors for the right and left heated power mirrors will be inspected for corrosion. All vehicles will have the power feed electrical terminal for the heated power mirrors relocated to a separate electrical connector. If the electrical connector is melted or damaged it must be removed and the wires spliced together.
In addition, a water shield will be installed to divert water away from the heated power mirror connector and dielectric grease will be inserted into the connector to prevent corrosion.

- Inspect the grey connector:
- If the connector is not melted or damaged, continue with Step 9 of this procedure.
- If the connector is melted, continue with Step 8 of this procedure.
Figure 4 – Blow Dry Connectors
- Use the following procedure to eliminate a melted mirror wire connector(s):
a. Mark the four wires on both sides of the grey mirror electrical connector so the wires can be spliced together correctly.
b. Cut off the wires at both sides of the grey mirror electrical connector (eliminating the grey mirror electrical connector).
c. Splice the wires together using special tool 10042, brass crimps, rosin core solder and shrink tube. Be sure to align wires using marks made in Step 8a. of this procedure.
d. Continue with Step 9 of this procedure.
NOTE: The remainder of the procedure shows a grey mirror electrical connector in the photographs. If the grey mirror electrical connector has been eliminated due to heat damage (melted), the mirror wiring kit must still be installed.
- Use the following procedure to prepare the wiring kit for installation:
a. Cut the new female connector wire so that it is 2 inches (51 mm) long (Figure 5).
