    Electrochromic mirror made by Magna, it’s not LCD. The reason it failed is due to poor manufacturing quality where the epoxy seal between the two sheets of glass failed (likely due to contamination of one of the surfaces during manufacture, or improperly cured epoxy). The fluid will oxidize and turn yellow / gold if exposed to air, which happens if the seal fails. The fluid is damaging to plastics & is also not good to touch w/ bare skin. The two main manufacturers of electrochromic mirrors for automotive use are Magna and Gentex. Gentex uses a fluid that turns semi-solid, preventing leakage if the seal fails. Magna uses fluid that does not gel causing damage to plastics if it leaks out (really nasty if it happens to the rear view mirror as it’ll ruin the dashboard and entertainment unit as it drips down).

    Best to put the clear glass over the mirror. That mirror is what’s referred to as a “first surface” mirror. Unlike normal mirrors the reflecting surface is on top of the glass, not behind it. It is *easily* scratched. Putting the clear glass over it will protect it, and not seriously interfere with its function.

      That was also my first thought, but I think, a first surface mirror would allready be damaged after that brutal cleaning procedure. So it should be fine. The second glass cover would probably add a certain amount of ghosting, similar to that shown earlier in the video. In spite of all that I would highly appreciate a follow up after some time driving through harsh weather conditions.

      I was just scammed again on EBay, which makes the third time. eBay money back guarantee is a joke. I even did a 3 way call with eBay and fedex so EBay could hear fedex say the package was delivered elsewhere. The tracking info of the package that eBay claims was mine, fedex flat out said it wasnt mine and wasnt my address. eBay still didnt refund me the money i paid for a Lawn Mower. Luckily my bank stepped in to reimburse me. After looking at the seller reviews, he has done that to others. Just scamming people. Im taking a break from eBay. eBay wouldn’t call FedEx to verify the information. All EBay did was look on their website, saw i was given a tracking number and the item showed as delivered, but of course it wasnt delivered to me. FedEx wouldn’t even give me any information on it. eBay claims their policy is to not allow 3 way calls, which is the only way to give proof the item wasnt received. Still didnt help tho. Im done with EBay for good. The scammer probably didnt even have a lawnmower to sell.

    I don"t know about the "High Quality" OEM part, but, earlier this year I replace both the driver and passenger mirrors. They were so bad it was impossible to see out of the. They were so dark brown, like they had been burnt. I suspect that the defrost portion was left on all the time since they're not timed. Only the drivers mirror was auto dimming and both mirrors looked like the silvering was being flaked off. Went online and picked up a couple for just a couple hundred bucks. Thanks for the video, Never would have guessed that there was some type of oil used in the auto dimming process.

    All kinds of petroleum products will soften and destroy the most common types of plastic. But, I have no idea what 'liquid crystal" is. Maybe it's suspended in some kind of oil. Another good question would be: Where was the oil being held in before it was leaked ? It had to be hermetically sealed in, somewhere. Why wasn't this place obvious ? It couldn't have been between the two pieces of glass because they easily came apart.

    The whole point of mirrors is to reflect objects so people can see them objects. Maybe headlights that don't blind people will help drivers see better than headlights that blind people. High beams are for seeing better when low beams aren't enough. People use to turn off high beams so they didn't blind people. Now people flash high beams to prove they are low beams and that the blindness level is at its lowest.

      That's just partially true. All these penetrating oils are basically our Grandfather's Petroleum, but thinned down with solvents to speed up penetration.
      So, not exactly a long term lube, because it's purpose is mainly penetration, but still lubricant enough for some stuff.
      Short term lube, of course. Solvent evaporates quickly, as it's just a means of transportation, then the light oil does it's job for a while. But depending on ambient temperature, the petroleum evaporates too within a couple of days.
      That's, why some penetrating oils have ingredients added which will act as dry lube when the petroleum is gone.

    Auto-dimming rearview mirrors use a gel that changes color when exposed to electricity to reduce glare from headlights behind you:
    1. Sensors detect light
    The mirror has sensors that detect light from the front and rear of the car.
    2. Electric signal is sent
    When the sensor detects more light from behind than the front, it sends an electric signal to the mirror.
    3. Gel darkens
    The signal travels through an electrochromic gel between the mirror's glass layers, causing the gel to darken.
    4. Mirror dims
    The darkened gel absorbs excess light, reducing glare and improving visibility.
    5. Sensor stops sending signal
    When the bright lights move out of the way, the sensor stops sending the signal, and the mirror returns to normal.
    How auto dimming mirrors work and what safety they provide ...
    Auto-dimming mirrors, also known as electrochromic mirrors, are a safety feature that can help you avoid accidents by reducing glare and improving visibility at night.

    • @JustaGuy-z4p
      @JustaGuy-z4p 5 วันที่ผ่านมา

      No, that's not how it works. The mirror is a big LC panel. The front glass is polarized. The liquid acquires a polarized state when the sensor detects light, and the resulting difference in polarization angle between the front glass and the liquid causes the assembly to block light. The "gel" does not darken.

      If it was, it would've been made much better with higher quality plastic that are durable and last for a long time.

    IMO. Someones trying to pry (steal) your side mirror. But, failed miserably.

    Hi, I'm sorry, did you watch your video before you titled it? The title is never mess with the mirror and your conclusion is everyone should mess with their mirror. I feel like you messed with me, as a viewer. And if we are going to call this restoring the mirror to its factory quality, are you suggesting that the second layer and oil in between served no purpose?

    They only put a limited amount of darkness in each mirror because they sell more mirrors that way. That's capitalism for you

    Do you have some inherent problem with honest titles?
    So many of your videos are "Don't ever do this..." or "Why you should NeVeR do..." and yet you do that thing. Or tell people they should.
    How hard is it for you just to title something "here's how to clean your mirrors". Or "here's how to do a transmission flush"?
