FAW Right-Hand Exterior Rear-View Mirror And Lower-View Mirror: 7 Critical Parts for Total Blind-Spot Annihilation

Welcome to this critical safety breakdown of the FAW Right-Hand Exterior Rear-View Mirror And Lower-View Mirror (Assembly 703). This is the complete, 7-component-type, “multi-mirror” electronic visibility system for the passenger side of the FAW Jiefang CA4251P66K24T1A3E5 6×4 tractor. This assembly’s “logic” is to provide a comprehensive solution to the critical, high-risk “blind-spots” on the truck’s right-hand side.

The FAW Right-Hand Exterior Rear-View Mirror And Lower-View Mirror is a “logic” system that combines three separate visibility components: the main ‘Outer rear-view mirror assy’ (8202020AA01) for lane-changing, the ‘Down-view mirror assy’ (8219010-A01-C00) for kerb-side awareness, and the ‘Front down-view mirror assy’ (8219020-A01) for the forward blind-spot. This “triple-view” logic is a critical safety feature for urban driving.

This in-depth guide is an essential resource for collision repair specialists and parts managers. We will deconstruct the entire FAW Right-Hand Exterior Rear-View Mirror And Lower-View Mirror assembly into its 7 distinct serviceable component types. We will analyze the “all-weather” electric and heated logic of the main mirror, the “anti-squeeze” logic of the down-view mirrors, and the critical “anti-vibration” fastener system that anchors this assembly to the door.

Core 1: The “Main Mirror” Logic (Component 1) (The “Longer” Module)

The ‘Right outer rear-view mirror assy’ (8202020AA01) is the primary component of the FAW Right-Hand Exterior Rear-View Mirror And Lower-View Mirror system. It is a “West Coast” style mirror, mounted on a large, structural arm. This single serviceable unit contains the “dual-view” glass, the “all-weather” electronics, and the “breakaway” safety arm.

1. The “Dual-View” Safety Logic:

This component houses two separate pieces of glass, each with a specific “logic”:

• Main Mirror (Flat): The large, upper glass is a “flat” 1:1 mirror. Its “logic” is to provide an accurate, true-to-life reflection, allowing the driver to precisely judge the distance and speed of vehicles in the adjacent right-hand lanes.
• Convex Mirror (Wide-Angle): The smaller, lower glass is “convex” (curved). Its “logic” is to “bend” the light, capturing a much wider field of view. This is the critical “blind-spot” mirror, allowing the driver to see vehicles that are “hidden” from the main flat glass.

2. The “All-Weather” Electric Logic:

The “AA01” part number designates this as an “electric” mirror. This “logic” is twofold:

Actuators: Inside the housing are 24V DC motors. This “adjustment logic” allows the driver to remotely aim the main flat glass from the ‘Electric mirror control switch’ (Assembly 577), which is critical for aiming the mirror *after* hooking up to a trailer.

Heater: Laminated to the back of the main glass is a “resistive heating element.” This “de-icing logic” is essential for safety, allowing the driver to instantly melt ice and evaporate fog from their most critical mirror, ensuring a clear view in all weather.

3. The “Structural Arm” Logic (Rigidity & Breakaway):

The arm of the FAW Right-Hand Exterior Rear-View Mirror And Lower-View Mirror is a heavy-duty, cast-aluminum component. Its “logic” is to be completely rigid. A truck mirror is a large “sail” that is constantly buffeted by 100+ km/h wind. This rigidity, combined with the ‘Combination screw’ (Component 3) fasteners, is what prevents the glass from “shaking” into an unusable, blurry mess.

This arm also has a “breakaway” logic. It is designed to “fold” inward or outward on impact, preventing a minor strike from tearing the ‘Front Door’ (683) sheet metal.

Core 2: The “Kerb-View” & “Front-View” Logic (Components 4 & 6)

This is what makes the FAW Right-Hand Exterior Rear-View Mirror And Lower-View Mirror a complete “system.” It includes two additional, separate “down-view” mirrors.

Component 4: ‘Down-view mirror assy’ (8219010-A01-C00)

This is the “kerb” (curb) mirror, mounted on its own arm and positioned to look *down* at the passenger-side front steer tire.

“Anti-Squeeze” Logic: This is its primary safety function. In a tight right-hand turn, this mirror shows the driver the *exact* location of their front wheel in relation to the kerb or, more importantly, a pedestrian or cyclist. This “logic” is the #1 tool for preventing “right-turn squeeze” accidents in urban areas.

Component 6: ‘Front down-view mirror assy’ (8219020-A01)

This is the “front” or “look-down” mirror. It is mounted on the top of the passenger door. Its “logic” is to *eliminate* the 6-foot “blind spot” *directly in front* of the cab. This component allows the driver to see a small child, a parking bollard, or an animal that would be completely invisible from the driver’s seat.

Core 3: The “Aero & Fastener” Logic (Components 2, 3, 5, 7)

This final group of components is the “installation logic” for the FAW Right-Hand Exterior Rear-View Mirror And Lower-View Mirror.

Component 2: ‘…Decorative cover’ (8202022-A01): This is the “finishing” component. It is a polymer “scuff plate” that snaps on *after* the main mirror is bolted down. Its “logic” is twofold: 1) It’s “Aesthetic,” hiding the ugly (but strong) mounting bolts. 2) It’s “Aero,” smoothing the airflow over the bolt heads to prevent “wind whistle” (NVH).

Components 3, 5, 7: ‘…Combination screw’ (T2180630F6, etc.): This is the “anti-vibration” logic. The assembly uses a total of nine (5 + 2 + 2) of these.

• “Inner Hexagon” Logic: (Allen head) This is a “high-torque” logic. It allows a technician to apply the *maximum* clamping force, far more than a “Cross recessed” (Phillips) screw.
• “Combination” Logic: (组合) This is the “anti-vibration” logic. These bolts have a *captive, pre-attached lock washer*. This washer “bites” into the metal, creating constant tension that makes the fasteners *immune* to vibration.

The “quantity logic” (5, 2, 2) shows that the Main Mirror (MSU 1) gets the 5-bolt pattern for maximum rigidity, while the two smaller “down-view” mirrors (MSUs 4 & 6) are secured with 2-bolt patterns.
