Anyone know how to put a new one in and connect it to the ICC

I pulled apart a mirror to see how hard the sensor would be to replace because mine is out big time, but its almost impossible. From what I see you have to pull the glass out of the mirror without breaking the back, then you can undo the sensor and cut it out and replace it. To change that whole mirror loom is impossible because the plugs were put on after the wires were run. Give it a go if you're game but I decided that if I change it I'll buy a new mirror

There was a ford tsb on incorrect outside temp readings. Ive done a few. Glass does come off. Motor unscrewed and temp sensor can be unscrewed. Ford sell the sensor separate with joiners. Cheaper than a new mirror

Yeah I'm considering buying a new one anyways due to the previous owner putting a different color one on there anyway

From another thread - " You can replace it yourself. Just look up the section in the manual that tells you how to replace the indicator light bulb on your mirror. Pop out the glass, I think there's one screw in there holding the sensor , and a couple of wires to cut then re attach. Not too difficult."
