Ringo333 Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 I went up to a breakers yard today and paid £25 for a new passenger wing mirror, got home to fit it which was all fine but when I lock the car it now clicks about 6 times. I've had a look around and seen that it is a common problem, so I was wondering if there is any way to fix it or could I take apart my old mirror and swap the motor in the new one as my old mirror didn't click at all. Thanks for any help :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isetta Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 mine was the same when I had a mk6.5. It was passenger side. I just disconnected the plug so it did not fold in anymore. obviously this meant it did not adjust or heat any more. I tried to find a wiring diagram so I could just snip the powerfold wire but could not find a diagram (this was a few years ago). I did have a haynes manual but it did not show the wiring for powerfold function. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ringo333 Posted August 29, 2017 Author Share Posted August 29, 2017 When I wired it I wondered why it didn't fold in and I found it was disconnected, once it was connected that was when it started clicking, probably why it was disconnected in the first place But there must be a way to strip down the wing mirror and use the motor and parts from my old mirror as that didn't click Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
