hello guys does anyone have a wiring diagram for this auto dimming ls430 mirror???
help would be appreciated


thanks

 

Depends on the year but heres the pinout and test procedure:




If you apply 12v+ to EC+ and return to EC- you should see it darken.

 

hello i appreciate the diagram mine is a 2002 ls430

so do i put 12v to red and ground the black and it will light up.

 

Yeah that should do it. Just follow the test procedure and you'll know if it works within a few mins.

 

Dunno if this helps or if you already wired it but I took a pic at the junkyard today with the colors on the small mirror connector and they are the same as yours except your green(s) - looks like you have 2 greens and this connector off a 2004 mirror in the junk yard has green & blue next to each other - The schematic is helpful and I think if you wanted to install a dashcam or radar detector you have a power and ground pins 4 and 1 that shows on the diagram. Thx for posting.

 

hello i am based in uk so that might be why
also is it possible if you can check if it works since i blew mine by putting 12v to red and ground to white just to check if it works thanks

 

I'll be back in the junk yard next week - what color - the beige or black - If I remember I will check one but will have to pay them $18.00 for it. ( half a lunch cost now days here )
They crush out rows inside the junkyard for steel weight so recently the yard had 4 facelift 04 to 06 - they crushed one I was going to look at last week already.
They usually keep cars for about a month to 2 months and the one LS430 they crushed was a Silver over Black and it was row 62 and only a month in the yard.
I am installing a dashcam rear view mirror style and didn't realize all the electronics inside the factory rear view mirror.

 

hello if you dont mind please may you be able to check the one in your photo not sure if its beige or black however my one is beige and looks like this

 

Yes - that is the Cashmere

 

Well I picked it up. And did some homework on how to test - but I get nothing - no dimming etc. Two different sets of instructions - use the yellow (pin 7) for power and use the black (pin 4) for ground. 2nd set posted here says pins 1 for power ( red ) and pin 4 ground (black) Neither way worked to cause dimming so this unit appears to be toast. I will plug it into the harness and test later.

 

Were at the end of LS430's in the junkyard - they crushed two that were only in the yard 3 weeks. I always check for them and will update.

 

Hello appreciate you for getting back to me. Do you think i should try the yellow and black pins on my plug?

 

I don't know but after further reading you can damage the circuit with the wrong polarity - i.e. Negative on positive & positive on negative - I can test in the car - I don't think my 2004 mirror works either after viewing a video but will go through the blocking of the sensor on back side of mirror and shining a bright LCD on the front sensor. .
I found this and am not sure it's correct either - this is in regards to using the yellow and black - this says 5 pin and these are not 5 pin. So I think the supplied diagram in this thread is correct and that is pin 1 for power and pin 4 ground.

 

if you dont mind please may you look into it and see if you could maybe use a multimeter to find the power and ground
Appreciate all the help thanks

 

hello any updates???
