Electric mirrors not working

[Jimmy1596]

Hi , my Electric mirrors are not working i was wondering if it could be a fuse in the fuse box missing or blown, does any one know the fuse number for the mirrors? cheers

Mirrors come through Fuse 19, which gets power through relay K7 after being activated by Fuse 10 with Ignition on:

Switch on the ignition, then unplug and replug the K7 relay to confirm it's clicking. Also confirm that your heater blowers are working, as they're also powered by relay K7.

If those check out fine, it's probably corrosion of pin 19 (green/white wire) in your driver's door loom plug, or a faulty switch

Most likely cause of both mirrors not working, when the heater fan does work, is a faulty mirror switch.

The heater blows out air but i'm unsure if the air gets hot, as i've only ran it on the drive, did you mean if the heater works or if the heater works and is fully functional? cheers

Heater fan. Irrelevant to this discussion whether it blows hot or cold, as long as it blows.
