REFER to: Exterior Mirror (501-09 Rear View Mirrors, Removal and Installation).

PINPOINT TEST G : THE INTERIOR AUTO-DIMMING MIRROR DOES NOT OPERATE CORRECTLY

Refer to Wiring Diagrams Cell 124 for schematic and connector information.

Normal Operation and Fault Conditions

REFER to: Rear View Mirrors - System Operation and Component Description (501-09 Rear View Mirrors, Description and Operation).

Possible Sources

  • Fuse
  • Wiring, terminals or connectors
  • TR data concern
  • Reverse lamp concern
  • Interior auto-dimming mirror

Visual Inspection and Pre-checks

  • Inspect BCM fuse 36 (15A).
NOTICE: Use the correct probe adapter(s) when making measurements. Failure to use the correct probe adapter(s) may cause damage to the connector. Use only Rotunda Flex Probes (NUD105-R025D)
G1 VERIFY THE OPERATION OF THE REVERSE LAMPS
  • Ignition ON.
  • NOTE: If the TR sensor is malfunctioning and the reverse lamps are inoperative or always on, the interior auto-dimming mirror will not function properly. Move the selector lever through the entire range while monitoring the reverse lamps.
  • Select PARK.

Do the reverse lamps illuminate ONLY in REVERSE?
Yes GO to G2
No DIAGNOSE the reversing lamps.
REFER to: Reversing Lamps (417-01 Exterior Lighting, Diagnosis and Testing).

G2 INSPECT THE MIRROR FOR PROPER INSTALLATION
  • Inspect the interior auto-dimming mirror to make sure the rearward facing sensor is at the top of the mirror glass.

Is the rearward facing sensor at the top of the interior auto-dimming mirror glass?
Yes GO to G3
No INSTALL the interior auto-dimming mirror with the rearward facing sensor at the top of the mirror glass. REFER to: Interior Rear View Mirror (501-09 Rear View Mirrors, Removal and Installation).

G3 VERIFY THE FORWARD AND REARWARD FACING SENSORS ARE NOT BLOCKED
  • Visually verify the forward and rearward facing sensors are not blocked or obstructed. Sources of obstruction can include:
    • Stickers, window decals or tags.
    • Fold-down screens for TVs or DVD players.
    • Non-OEM window tinting.
    • Dirt and debris

Are either of the sensors blocked?
Yes If possible, REMOVE the obstruction. If it is not possible to remove the obstruction, ADVISE the customer the blockage will affect the operation of the auto-dimming mirror.
No GO to G4

G4 VERIFY THE OPERATION OF THE INTERIOR AUTO-DIMMING MIRROR - DAYLIGHT CONDITIONS
  • NOTE: Base electrochromatic mirror shown. Use a bright lamp to illuminate the forward facing sensor and the rearward facing sensor. The mirror should adjust to a high reflectance state (mirror will be clear).

Did the mirror adjust to a high reflectance (clear) state?
Yes GO to G5
No INSTALL a new interior auto-dimming mirror. REFER to: Interior Rear View Mirror (501-09 Rear View Mirrors, Removal and Installation).

G5 VERIFY THE OPERATION OF THE INTERIOR AUTO-DIMMING MIRROR - NIGHTTIME CONDITIONS
  • NOTE: Covering the sensor(s) with a finger or hand is not adequate for this step. Cover the forward and rearward facing sensors with black electrical tape or other dark material. The mirror should adjust to a high reflectance state (mirror will be clear).

Did the mirror adjust to a high reflectance (clear) state?
Yes GO to G6
No INSTALL a new interior auto-dimming mirror. REFER to: Interior Rear View Mirror (501-09 Rear View Mirrors, Removal and Installation).

G6 VERIFY THE OPERATION OF THE INTERIOR AUTO-DIMMING MIRROR - NIGHTTIME CONDITIONS WITH GLARE
  • NOTE: Covering the sensor(s) with a finger or hand is not adequate for this step. Remove the black electrical tape or other dark material from the rearward facing sensor.
  • Use a bright light to illuminate the rearward facing sensor. The mirror should adjust to a lower reflectance state (mirror will be dark).

Did the mirror adjust to a low reflectance (dark) state?
Yes GO to G7
No GO to G8

G7 VERIFY THE OPERATION OF THE INTERIOR AUTO-DIMMING MIRROR - VEHICLE IN REVERSE AND NIGHTTIME CONDITIONS WITH GLARE
  • NOTE: Covering the sensor(s) with a finger or hand is not adequate for this step. Continue to illuminate the rearward facing sensor with the forward facing sensor covered.
  • Select REVERSE.

Did the mirror adjust to a high reflectance (clear) state after reverse was selected?
Yes Select PARK. The system is operating correctly at this time. REVIEW the operation of the interior auto-dimming mirror feature with the customer.
No GO to G10

G8 CHECK FOR VOLTAGE TO THE INTERIOR AUTO-DIMMING MIRROR
  • Ignition OFF.
  • Disconnect: Interior Auto-Dimming Mirror C911.
  • Ignition ON.
  • Measure:
    Click to display connectors
    Positive Lead Measurement / Action Negative Lead
      C911-1   Ground

Is the voltage greater than 11 volts?
Yes GO to G9
No VERIFY that BCM fuse 36 (15A) is OK. If the fuse is OK, REPAIR the circuit. If the fuse is not OK, REFER to the Wiring Diagrams manual to identify the possible causes of the circuit short.

G9 CHECK FOR GROUND AT THE INTERIOR AUTO-DIMMING MIRROR
  • Ignition OFF.
  • Measure:
    Click to display connectors
    Positive Lead Measurement / Action Negative Lead
      C911-3   Ground

Is the resistance less than 3 ohms?
Yes GO to G10
No REPAIR the circuit.

G10 CHECK THE REVERSE INHIBIT CIRCUIT FOR VOLTAGE AT THE INTERIOR AUTO-DIMMING MIRROR WITH THE VEHICLE IN REVERSE
  • Ignition ON.
  • Select REVERSE.
  • Measure:
    Click to display connectors
    Positive Lead Measurement / Action Negative Lead
      C911-2   Ground

Is the voltage greater than 11 volts?
Yes INSTALL a new interior auto-dimming mirror. REFER to: Interior Rear View Mirror (501-09 Rear View Mirrors, Removal and Installation).
No REPAIR the circuit.
