CORRECTIVE ACTION

Replace any missing or damaged parts (see PARTS INFORMATION), and reinstall the rearview mirror.

1. Remove the lock bolt from the mirror stay as described in the appropriate service manual.





2. Inspect the hook plate. If the hook plate is distorted, bend it to its original 90° position.

3. Inspect the lock bolt, the toothed washer, and the hold spring. Replace any parts that are missing, broken, or distorted (see PARTS INFORMATION).





4. Loosely install the hook plate, hold spring and the toothed washer to the mirror stay using the lock bolt. Make sure the hook plate is over the top of the toothed washer. Thread in the lock bolt until the toothed washer is approximately 5 mm from the mirror stay.
