My heated mirrors have stopped working any ideas anyone.

They adjust electrically but no heat.

Best regards

Remove one of the mirrors and put your multimeter across the wires. if you have 12v with ign on, then the mirror element has failed :(

Go on, ask me a question. Right, here goes.

In your post you say "remove one of the mirrors" ;)

How do you actually do this without breaking it ?? :shrug: Lol.

Pass :D :D :D

Only joking ;)

Thre mirror glass is held in place by 4 platic cup and cone fittings, angle the mirror as far down as it will go and use a thin wide blade behind it and "pop" it out. i use my fingers now and pull gently and evenly from two points not too far apart on the edge of the mirror :)
