Heated Mirror Stopped Working
« on: 04 January 2010, 19:40 »
Hi Guys,

Noticed this morning that when I turned on the heated mirrors only the driver side defrosted, leaving the passenger side all frosted up. Does anyone know what the likely cause is? Possible new element in the wing mirror?  :sad:

If so has anyone had one replaced and know the cost?

Cheers

Mine is the same,drivers side only.It does seem to point to the element on the rear of the mirror & a new one is around 30 quid so i'm told.
