Newbie here (not to Honda - just 2 the CT). I cannot figure out the rear view auto-dimming buttom. Press the buttom - left light goes on. Press again, left light goes out. But I see no difference in the mirror at all! What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

It is supposed to dim when you have bright lights in the mirror.

It is self "adjusting" having the "light" on, means its in auto detect mode. It will determine the brightness coming through to the mirror and auto dimm if needed, since the back hatch window is shaded, this rarely activates, when it does you will notice a "blue/greenish" tint to the view, from what I have noticed. Only turn the light on the mirror off if you do not want it to auto "dimm".

OK Thanks - guess I will have to have someone with their brights on behind me to tell if it is working!

The lights would have to pretty much be uncomfortably bright, since the back window is tinted as well.

It also takes a little time for it to adjust (several seconds). It is not instantaneous.
