Was hoping someone out there might be able to answer a question for me regarding the auto dimming rear view and side view mirrors. I, vaguely, recall all three of them dimming before and the past couple of days only my rear view and DS mirror dim... Now I may be mistaken so that's why I'm coming here for clarification so that I can either put the thought to rest or get it repaired. Thanks fellas!
Also, where is the sensor for the auto dimming mirrors located?

Owner's manual states interior and driver side mirror auto-dimming only.  No idea where the sensors are located.
2007 Ford Edge SEL, Powerstop F/R Brake Kit, TXT LED 6000K Lo & Hi Beams, W16W LED Reverse Bulbs, 3BSpec 2.5w Map Lights, 5W Cree rear dome lights, 5W Cree cargo light, DTBL LED Taillights

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Sensors are in the rear view mirror at the bottom. The two little white squares.

The passenger side mirror only dims on the Lincoln MKS. The drivers side, and rear view mirrors dimming are awesome in heavy traffic, love'em.

However, both exterior mirrors are heated on both models. Which, over the last few foggy weeks have been awesome.
