Heated Mirrors




The exterior Sideview Mirrors are equipped with heating elements located behind the mirror glass (1) on each sideview mirror. They work in conjunction with the Rear Window Defogger. When the defogger is activated, the sideview mirror heating elements are powered. The heating elements behind each sideview mirror cannot be repaired. If faulty or damaged, the entire sideview mirror assembly must be replaced.

When the Rear Window Defogger Switch is pressed with the Ignition Switch turned to the ON/RUN position, the exterior mirror heating elements receive power through Fuse 4 in the Underhood Accessory Fuse Block.
