Power Side View Mirror

Power side view mirror system consists of mirror head with integral servomotor assembly and mirror control switch. Some models are equipped with an electric heating element in outside mirror glass.

Automatic dimming is an option on the inside and left side mirrors on some models. The auto-dimming mirror is controlled by 2 light-sensitive photocells. Outside light level is measured by a sensor on backside of mirror housing. A second sensor, located on reflective side of mirror, detects approaching rear lights. The mirror photochromatically dims when glare is detected from rear of vehicle. Mirror switches normal state whenever transmission gear selector is placed in Reverse.
