  1. For re-calibration of a previously calibrated mirror, connect a diagnostic scan tool to the Data Link Connector (DLC) (1) below the driver side end of the instrument panel (2).
  2. Turn the ignition switch to the On position.
  3. A new mirror will begin flashing the electrochromic LED at a rate of once-per-second to indicate that it is in calibration mode and calibration is required. For re-calibration of a previously calibrated mirror, use the diagnostic scan tool to enter the SmartBeam unit into calibration mode. Look in the diagnostic scan tool under the "SmartBeam" or "Automatic High Beam Module/AHBM" menu item as appropriate. When a previously calibrated SmartBeam unit has entered calibration mode, it will also be indicated by flashing the electrochromic LED at a rate of once-per-second.
  4. Connect the aim board transformer to illuminate the aim board LED units. The electrochromic LED will continue to flash for five to ten seconds, then will stop flashing to indicate that it has completed calibration. If the LED begins to flash at a faster rate (twice-per-second), it indicates that a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) has been recorded. Use the diagnostic scan tool to retrieve the DTC, then refer to LAMPS/LIGHTING - EXTERIOR - ELECTRICAL DIAGNOSTICS .
