INTERIOR MIRROR 

The interior mirror incorporates either manual dimming or auto-dimming. Manual dimming is performed with a lever on the 
underside of the mirror body. Auto-dimming is performed by electrochromic mirror glass. 
 
Depending on vehicle model and market, the auto-dimming interior mirror may also incorporate a HomeLink® universal 
transmitter. 
 
NOTE :  

 
Interior mirrors with the universal transmitter and/or the auto-dimming functions are connected to the vehicle wiring by an 
electrical connector concealed by the finishers covering the mounting stem. When the ignition switch is in position II, a 
battery power feed from the Central Junction Box (CJB) is supplied to the universal transmitter and/or auto-dimming 
circuits in the interior mirror. 
 
Light sensors on the front and rear of the interior mirror provide light level inputs for the auto-dimming function. 
 
Interior mirrors which incorporate the universal transmitter have buttons along the lower face for control of the universal 
transmitter and auto-dimming functions. They also have a dual colored status indicator on the rear of the mirror which 
illuminates when the auto-dimming and universal transmitter functions are active; green for auto-dimming and red for the 
universal transmitter.
