Gentex Auto-Dimming Electrochromatic Anti-Glare Assembly
Detailed Component Information
This replacement interior rear view mirror is engineered by Gentex under original manufacturing contracts for Jaguar / Ford Motor Company (FoMoCo). Featuring full automatic electrochromatic dimming technology, it uses dual photodiode light sensors to actively sense approaching headlight glare from trailing vehicles and dim the mirror fluid matrix automatically.

⚠️ Symptoms of a Faulty or Failing Rear Mirror:
- Glass Discoloration / "Gold Ringing": Electrochromatic fluid breakdown creates a permanent brown tint or visible internal liquid line.
- Auto-Dimming Failure: The mirror fails to darken when glare hits night sensors, leading to harsh driver dazzle.
- Fluid Leakage: Internal liquid crystal fluid leaks out, which can permanently stain or melt center console trim plastics.
- Loose Mount / Socket: Ball swivel joint fails, causing the mirror to drop or vibrate continuously while driving.
