Auto-Dimming Mirror Problem

My interior rear view mirror doesn't seem to have much dimming effect on the bright headlights behind me. Has anyone else experienced this problem?
The exterior driver side mirror is working OK.

I created the same issue with installation of 15% tint. Tint does an OK job of cutting glare though - but I recognized the mirror stopped dimming.
