9002-9510 Wiring Instructions (Auto Dimming/Onstar Video Display Mirror)
IMPORTANT
: Read before installing. For the latest full color instructions please visit

Mirror Mounting Covers (the 2012 Equinox is shown below on the left). Refer to our application guide for
affected vehicles – Remove with a plastic trim tool. If your vehicle has a center portion, that requires removal
first. Using a die grinder remove the striped area, of the center cover, that is shown below. The cover next to it is
after the rework.
Mirror Mounting- This mirror has a Wedge/ D-tab style mounting base. Please check our application guide to
ensure sure it is compatible with your vehcile (adapters are available for specific applications separately). Slide
the mirror onto the tab. Torque for the mirror screw that attaches to the windshield tab is 1.8 Nm (16 lb-in) and
cannot exceed 2.2 Nm (19.5 lb-in).
Camera requirements- The camera signal must be strong enough for the mirror to detect signal when reverse is
engaged. We recommend that the camera be connected to mirror prior to installation to confirm compatiblity. Best
results are on cameras that have a .8- 1.6 VDC coming out of video composite lead (commonly a yellow RCA
jack). To test this use a multimeter set to DC and connect the (-) lead to the camera RCA shield and the (+) lead
to the camera RCA tip with the camera powered ON.
Powering up the camera- The mirror stays ON for over 1 second when reverse is disengaged and if the camera
is connected to the reverse tail lamp then the screen will flash Blue. If the camera does not power up instantly
when the vehicle is shifted into reverse the screen will not detect the camera and will not display an image. For
these reasons we recommend that the camera be connected to Ignition (+).
About OnStar- OnStar does get any of its electical signal from the same leads as the LCD portion of the mirror
and so just testing that the OnStar works does NOT signify that the mirror is getting all of its needed power.
16 Pin Connector required- This kit will only work on vehicles that are equipped with the 16 pin connector in the
illustration below. Some GM vehicles with OnStar are equipped with a 10 pin connector. You will need a 10 to 16
pin adapter part number 9002-6006a (not supplied) in these cases. Download the latest application guide at
www.brandmotion.com/docs2/rvsappguide.pdf for current list of GM vehicles with a 10 pin connector.
Low Speed LAN Circuit- It is important that if the vehicle you are working has a wire in cavity 3 that you remove
and isolate it from the mirror connector. Not doing so will cause the vehicle computer to malfunction and the
vehicle will not start.
