AUTO-DIMMING MIRROR INSPECTION
1. Cover the day/night sensor on the back of the mirror with a piece of black paper or cloth.
2. In a well-lit area, shine a light at the mirror to simulate glare from vehicles to the rear. Verify that the

If not, replace the auto-dimming mirror.
NOTE:
The mirror will dim within 2 min if testing for the first time.
BASE REMOVAL
1. Remove the rearview mirror.

the SST (piano wire).
NOTE:
Use a long sawing action to spread the work over the whole length of the SST (piano wire) to
prevent it from breaking.
3. Saw through the sealant to remove the base.
BASE INSTALLATION
1. Cut away all of the original sealant using a razor.
2. Clean and degrease the ceramic coating on the glass and the base.
