Automatic Inside Dimming Mirror - Acura 3.5 RL Manual

Automatic Inside Dimming Mirror

Component Location Index
Description
The automatic dimming has a front-facing lux level sensor, a rear-facing lux level sensor, and a control unit. The control
unit receives signals from each sensor. Based on the difference between the two lux levels (the light outside the vehicle and
the light from the headlights of the other vehicle, etc.), the control unit controls the elector-chromic gel to reduce the glare.
This dimming function is canceled when the transmission is in reverse, or when the automatic inside dimming mirror switch
is turned OFF.
