(G.2) Changing Upper Fastener Kit

It is very important that you firmly hold the mirror and bracket system in place

throughout this process. The fasteners keep the mirror from falling off the

vehicle. Damage may occur to the door and mirror if the mirror is not supported.

1) Remove entire fastener kit. Hold mirror in place to prevent it from falling.

2) Once upper holder is attached to truck, put tube connector and fiber washer

in place and insert bolt. Once the bolt is in place, the mirror should not fall

away from the truck.

3) Line the Belleville washers up as shown and slide them onto the bottom of

the screw. Attach the nut and tighten to 14-16 N-m.

(G.3) Cleaning the Mirror Glass

A standard glass cleaner and a soft, clean cloth should be used to clean the mirror surface. Avoid abrasive cleaners or brushes,

as they can scratch the glass and damage the mirror plate.

Newer trucks have 1st surface glass, which has an exposed reflective

surface and is not subject to corrosion.

To determine the kind of glass, place an object such as a pen on the

glass surface. Angle the pen to one side, so you can see the tip. If there

is a gap between the tip of the object and the tip of the image, the glass

is 2nd surface.

(G.4) Removing, Attaching, or Adjusting the Mirror Heads (From the Bracket)

To Adjust Mirror Head

1) Slightly loosen the two clamp bolts using a T-30 driver. To prevent the

mirror from sliding down, hold it in place from the bottom.

2) Adjust mirror head to desired position. Tighten clamp screws to 9-11 N-m.

MAKE SURE THE OPTIMUM VIEWING ANGLE

IS ASSURED FOR THE DRIVER OF THE VEHICLE

AT ALL TIMES!

To Remove Mirror Head

1) If the mirror is heated and/or remote, remove the mirror plate (see G.5.1) and

disconnect the control cables before removing the head.

2) Remove the two clamp bolts using a T-30 driver. To prevent the mirror from

sliding down, hold it in place from the bottom.

3) Gently remove the mirror head from the bracket, making sure not to damage the

wires or connectors.

To Attach Mirror Head

1) Place mirror head on bracket. Make sure that the wires coming from the bracket

go into the mirror head. Tighten the two clamp bolts to 9-11 N-m (5-8 Ft-lbs)

using a T-30 driver. Ensure the proper position is set for the driver.

2) Attach motor and heater cables (if applicable) and replace the glass according to

G.5.2.

(G.5.1) Removing Mirror Glass –Carrier Plate Style

If you have glass-and-bezel style mirror heads, use the procedure on G.5.3.

Your Lang-Mekra mirror system is equipped with a durable mirror

plate. The mirror glass is reinforced with anti-shattering adhesive to

minimize splintering in the event of breakage. We strongly

recommend the prompt replacement of damaged mirror plates.

For a heated mirror, be careful not to damage the wiring or the heater

connections when changing the mirror plate, especially when

detaching heater wires from the mirror plate.

To Remove the Mirror Plate

1) Use a small flat-head screwdriver to push in the locking tabs

through the access slits along the mirror housing. DO NOT use

the screwdriver to pry the mirror plate!

2) Start by pushing in the tab at the top of the mirror, then

continue around the mirror while pulling firmly on the mirror

plate.

3) Pull the mirror plate away from the housing. If the mirror is

heated, detach the heater wires from the back of the plate. Do not

cut the wires.

(G.5.2) Installing Mirror Glass –Carrier Plate Style

To Install Mirror Plate

1) If mirror is heated, attach wire terminals to the back of the new mirror plate.

2) Align locking clips on mirror plate with mirror housing. Make sure all the clips are inside the housing

before pushing on the mirror plate! This will keep from damaging the locking clips. Failure to install the

mirror plate correctly could result in vibration, or loss of mirror plate.

3) Press mirror plate into housing firmly, ensuring all clips lock into place.

(G.5.3) Glass Carrier Plate with AAT Instructions

Using a multi-meter, troubleshoot the AAT wire harness first for continuity. If the AAT wire harness has proper continuity, then check the AAT sensor referencing the ambient

chart above. If the AAT sensor is not working correctly to the chart then replace it by using the following instructions.

To remove the AAT sensor, depress the black locking tab and push the sensor in towards the center of the carrier plate assembly.

Replace the sensor by using the sensor to depress the black locking tab and push out ward until the black locking tab is fully engaged.

T.1.1BracketDoesNotFoldBack

T.1.2BracketFoldsBackTooEasilyorVibrates

Brackets are equipped with a fold-away feature, sometimes

referred to as a break-away system. The mirrors will fold back

either manually, or spontaneously upon impact. This feature

helps to minimize damage to the mirror system and the door.

The brackets have rotating attachments that allow the fold away

(break-away) function. The upper holder is designed to give the

bracket stability. However, the upper fastener kit may sometimes

require adjustment. See G.2 to service the upper fastener.

Do not attempt to disassemble the lower holder / break-

away assembly. This assembly is spring-loaded, and

serious injury could occur if improperly serviced.

If the upper fastener kit is too loose, it will have to be tightened. If the

upper fastener kit has been over-torqued and flattened the Belleville

washers, the entire fastener kit must be replaced. See G.2 to service the

upper fastener.

Make sure the attachments to the door are secure.

Ensure the lower pivot is in the correct detent position.
