Toyota Repair: Replace side mirror on Toyota Camry 2000, toyota camry, wire insulation


Question
Hi Ted. Do you have any ideas on how to replace the side mirror on the passenger side for Toyota Camry 2000? Some web sites sell the side mirror with heated and non-heated. What is heated and non heated? THank you for your information.

Answer
Yes you will have to know if it is either one or the other, the easiest way to find out is to remove the black rectangular cover and cut away a small part of the wire insulation to the mirror, if there are three wires it is not heated, if there are five wires it is a heated mirror.
The electrical connector is located down inside the door panel and it has to be removed to gain access to the connector.
