BeebZetec Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 Hi I have a question about power folding mirrors. I was checkingthe fuse box underneath the glove box and notice I have the right fuse box with one of the relays, however I have noticed the second relay is not there, but also the input to put the relay is not there either. Does anyone know why and how i can get passed this? Hope that makes sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand that, i know what parts i need. What i am saying is in the fuse box i only have one relay and no slot to put the other one.

If you've no wiring harness then not only will your mirrors not get power from the fuse box, but your ecu won't know what to do (even after programing). I've just been told to check for a certain number of wires in the door harness, and if it doesn't match then you can't do it, however I probably haven't looked into it as much as you, so could be wrong. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winemart2 Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 Yet another license to print money. Power fold mirrors are almost bound to cause probs, either with cold weather or with extreme use. A built-in money maker. My advice - turn off auto fold and only use when needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
