Description
General
The electrochromatic rear view mirror darkens automatically
to prevent glare from a following vehicle's headlamps. The
mirror clears again when light levels return to normal.
When reverse gear is selected, the mirror clears automatically
to provide maximum rear view vision while the vehicle is
reversing. When the reverse switch is activated a digital signal
is transmitted to the mirror via the BCM.
The power supply for the mirror is supplied via fuse 44 in the
BCM fusebox.
Light Sensors
Two light sensors are positioned on the mirror facing forwards
and rearwards. Light levels are recorded and if the rearward
sensor detects significantly higher light levels compared with
the forward sensor, the mirror is darkened to prevent glare.
