This left (driver’s side) exterior mirror is a direct-fit replacement for Peugeot 406 models requiring an electrically adjustable and heated mirror. Finished in ETHC grey metallic, the unit includes a 5-pin electrical connector and shows minor paint scuffs consistent with normal used-condition wear. It is intended for mechanics and experienced DIY enthusiasts looking for a reliable OE-style mirror assembly.

Function

The mirror provides external rearward visibility with electric adjustment and an integrated heating element to de-ice and demist the glass. Electric motor adjustments allow on-the-fly positioning from the cabin while the heater speeds clearing of condensation and frost for improved visibility and safety.

Fitment

Designed For: Peugeot 406 (Saloon/Sedan, Estate/SW, Coupe) — Driver Side (Left). Verify model variant and mirror options when replacing, as mounting and connector types can vary by production year and trim.

Technical Information

• Manufacturer: Stellantis (Citroën / Peugeot)
• Model: Peugeot 406
• Product Codes: 8149S2
• Additional Numbers: ETHC (Color Code), NFP
• Connector: 5-Pin Electrical Plug

Installation Recommendations

• Safety First: Disconnect the vehicle battery before working on door electrics to avoid short circuits and accidental operation.
• Access: Remove the interior triangular trim or door card to reach the mirror fixing bolts and the 5-pin connector.
• Removal: Support the mirror from outside, remove the retaining nuts/bolts, carefully disconnect the 5-pin harness and any heating element wiring.
• Installation: Connect the electrical plug, align the mirror, torque the mounting fasteners to manufacturer specification, refit trims and test all functions (adjustment, folding if applicable, and heating) before final assembly.
• Tips: Use dielectric grease on connector contacts if available to reduce corrosion risk. Avoid forcing the adjustment motor; if movement is stiff, inspect for binding or foreign objects first.

Most Common Reasons For Failure

• Impact Damage: Collisions or knocks from road debris are the leading cause of broken housings, cracked glass or misaligned mechanisms.
• Motor Or Actuator Wear: Repeated use or ingress of dirt and moisture can cause the electric motor or gearing to fail or become noisy.
• Water Ingress And Corrosion: Moisture entering the housing or connector can corrode contacts and heating elements, causing intermittent or permanent electrical failure.
• Connector Or Wiring Damage: Chafed wires or damaged connectors (often from door hinge movement) lead to loss of electrical functions.
• Surface Wear: Paint scuffs and minor cosmetic damage occur from stones, brushes, or close parking and do not typically affect function.
