Fitment & Compatibility
Designed for Citroën C3 Picasso models. Always confirm compatibility by checking the OE/product code (1612067580), connector pin count (9-pin) and paint code (EPYD/EPY) against your vehicle before ordering. Many customers search using the OE number, so this mirror is ideal if you have that reference.
Replacement Guide
Suitable for experienced mechanics and competent DIYers. Typical replacement steps:
- Disconnect the negative battery terminal to avoid short circuits and airbag faults.
- Carefully remove the interior door trim or triangular mirror cover to access mounting screws and the wiring plug.
- Disconnect the 9-pin connector and any lighting wires, then remove the fastening bolts securing the mirror to the door.
- Fit the new mirror, secure bolts to the manufacturer’s specification, reconnect wiring and reassemble the trim.
- Reconnect the battery and test all functions: adjustment, folding, heating and approach light.
Replacement time typically ranges from 30 to 60 minutes depending on experience and trim removal complexity.
Common Faults & Maintenance
- Electrical faults: failed adjustment motors, heating element or folding actuator are common after years of use or water ingress.
- Connector issues: corrosion or damaged pins in the 9-pin plug can cause intermittent or total failure of features.
- Impact damage: mirrors are frequently damaged in collisions or by stationary obstacles; housing and glass may break.
- Maintenance: keep connector contacts clean and ensure door seals prevent water entry. Replace the whole mirror assembly if internal components are damaged.
