Driver's Side Mirror Not Auto Dimming...please Help!

[mikeaxler]

Hey guys. So on my 2004 Silverado 1500, the driver's side rea rview mirror suddenly stopped dimming at night. The mirror was never hit or is not damaged whatsoever. Everything else on the mirror works fine (side marker, electronic adjustments and auto fold, etc.) I didn't think it was that big of a deal at first but it was such a nice feature, especially with those blinding HID lights! I tried searching for a fuse or something thinking it was electronic but found noting. I know a replacement is rather expensive and a few people said all I needed to do was replace the glass. Can someone please help! Thanks!!!

First thing, is it on? I dont know about 2004, but in the 08s you can shut off the auto dim.

 

Next step, is the sensor in the rear view mirror blocked? If you shine a flashlight into the mirror will it dim the rear view mirror?
