Installation Recommendations
Before starting, park the vehicle on a level surface and ensure ignition is off. For safety, consider isolating the vehicle’s electrical system according to workshop procedures. Replacement steps (general guide):
- Remove the interior door trim or triangular cover to access mirror mounting fasteners.
- Disconnect the 5-pin connector by gently releasing the locking tab.
- Unscrew the mirror mounting bolts and support the mirror when removing to avoid dropping.
- Fit the replacement mirror, tighten mounting bolts to manufacturer torque, and reconnect the electrical connector.
- Test electric adjustment and heating function before reassembling door trim.
Use correct trim tools to prevent damage to interior panels. If vehicle is equipped with electric folding or additional features, verify function after installation. If uncertain about specific fastening torques or wiring routings, consult factory repair literature.
Why This Part Fails Most Often
- Impact Damage: Collisions or knocks are the most common cause—broken housing, cracked glass, or bent mounting points.
- Wear And Tear On Motors And Gears: Repeated adjustment can cause motor or gear wear, leading to slow or stuck movement.
- Corrosion And Moisture Ingress: Water and salt can corrode connectors or internal components, causing intermittent or permanent electrical faults.
- Heating Element Failure: The defogging/defrost function can fail due to broken traces or connector issues.
Suitable Applications
Designed for Peugeot 406 models. Confirm visual match of mounting points and connector type when replacing similar generation mirrors. This unit is intended for vehicles with an ETHC Grey Metallic finish and a 5-pin mirror connector.
Note
Minor paint abrasions are present as described. Functionality of electrical components should be verified immediately after installation.
