Heated Mirrors

HEATED MIRROR SYSTEM COMPONENTS
The heated mirror system consists of the following components:
^ RR Defog relay
^ HVAC control module
^ Left outside power mirror
^ Right outside power mirror
^ HTD MIRROR 10 A fuse

HEATED MIRROR SYSTEM CONTROLS
The heated mirror system is activated by depressing the rear window defogger switch, which is part of the HVAC control module. For further information on the rear window defogger operation, refer to Rear Window Defogger Description and Operation

HEATED MIRROR SYSTEM OPERATION
The heated mirror system operates in parallel to the rear window defogger. Each outside rearview mirror contains a heating element that is connected to a constant ground source. When the rear window defogger system is active, battery voltage is available at the HTD MIRROR fuse and to the outside rearview mirrors through the heated mirror supply voltage circuit. The mirrors will heat up to remove ice, snow or frost and will automatically deactivate when the rear defogger system has timed out, approximately 10 minutes.
