Ford Maverick Homelink Mirror Install

As discussed on the Maverick Truck Club, no Maverick comes with an embedded garage door opener (tinyurl.com/5f.... This discussion led me to purchasing and installing the Homelink mirror that also has an embedded compass and auto dimming.
Installation was relatively simple and inexpensive if you can locate one of the mirrors which have been on sale for less than $20.
This is the only complete installation video for the Ford Maverick that I am aware of. Hope if is helpful should you decided to install one yourself.

    Thanks for the video. Just got my loaded Lariat too and quickly found out it was missing the Homelink. Great video.

    Thanks for the video! Did this on my truck. Recommend using wago inline connectors instead of using a heat gun near the headliner. Only thing is splice a little higher up from the connector as it needs room for the 90 degree bend to plug back in. Where I spliced, it barely made the bend with the inline connectors in place. Also, middle wire of Kia/Gentech connector to yellow, white/black to purple, and opposite black to black ground. You can also tell the ground because it is aluminum wire not copper like the other two. Hope this helps!

    Excellent … thanks for the clarification on the wiring colors. This helps tremendously. As I understand it, homelink requires 12v constant power.

    I bought the 10 year battery Toyota Corolla homelink mirror. 10 minutes to install. I love it - no wiring required. Just not auto dimming.

    The screw that attaches the mirror to the bracket is a Torx T-20 if you don't want to use an allen key.

    Good video, I also ordered one of the from Kia World parts, paid for it and was expecting it when suddenly received an email that that P/N was discontinued and they would refund my money. I guess it was too cheap and so they now sell another one for over $100.

    I can’t use the purple wire, it is connected to the dash lights so when I dim the dash lights I lose voltage.

    I believe you stated yellow Maverick wire goes to black Mirror wire. Could you please clarify if black Maverick wire goes to black Mirror wire, and if purple Maverick wire goes to what color Mirror wire? thank you, Jerry

    Is there an updated version of this mirror available? If so, does anyone know the part number? When I called Kia they said A7062-ADUP1 has been discontinued and when I tried purchasing through 3rd party they took my money, then refunded saying they could no longer get the part.

    I tried this with 2 Gentex mirrors on my Maverick Lariat and it worked great in the daytime, but as soon as light hit it at night the compass went spaz and the mirror did not auto dim. It worked fine at night if there were no lights shining on it. Turning on the dome lights made glitch as well. I'm not sure but I think the purple wire is variable voltage connected the BCM. Has anyone else had this problem with this installation? Update: I connected the mirrors' power and accessory power to a direct 12v power source and it worked perfectly. With that said, many of these come with and installation cord that is long enough to go to your fuse block. Use it and a couple of fuse taps. Problem solved.

    Wow, Rick Case Kia in Duluth, GA. I gave them a call, the parts guy asked me where I got that part number. I politely told him by searching online. He asked for the last 4-6 digits of my VIN. I told him this was not for a Kia. He got smart and told me he would not sell me a part without a VIN. I told him I see so many places online where I can just order right now but I wanted to give them my business instead. He rudely said, not without a partial VIN number and hung up on me. I immediately finished up my credit card info online and it'll be here on the 19th. Shipping costs about 6 bucks but it's an inexpensive part and worth the upgrade. The guy was pissed.... Go figure.

    Don’t know. You may want to recheck wiring connections to make sure they are correct. I think it should show C until calibrated. The instructions show how to do that.

    Don't believe that matters - see www.mavericktruckclub.com/forum/threads/cheap-auto-dimming-homelink-mirror.8346/ for lots of details done by many Maverick owners on a variety of models. The thread is pretty long but worth the time to review if you are interested in moving forward with this mod. I love mine - probably the best thing I have done to my Mav.

    You'll have to run 3 wires from the fuse box to the mirror through the passenger-side A pillar...not fun but can be done. kzread.info/dash/bejne/jHib2bVmm7a_YsY.htmlsi=g_5Kz_NnNufxMOht

    Definitely worth it for $45 you get an auto-dimming compass mirror with 3 HomeLink buttons (and you can pay a dealer or the neighbor's kid to install it).
