TRD3000GT Posted March 19, 2003 Share Posted March 19, 2003 I have those flippy mirrors but the right hand side one has stopped working! I have listened to it the motor does not make any noise when activated, Is there a fuse for each mirror??? What should I do???? Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terminator Posted March 19, 2003 Share Posted March 19, 2003 I think these are controlled by relays I would suspect that first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRD3000GT Posted March 20, 2003 Author Share Posted March 20, 2003 Where would I find these so called relays? and when I find them what do I do with them? Thanks. Chris. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terminator Posted March 22, 2003 Share Posted March 22, 2003 Originally posted by TRD3000GT Where would I find these so called relays? and when I find them what do I do with them? Thanks. Chris. I am not sure where they are but pretty certain that they are not located above the drivers footwell. I am not even sure if it is a relay, but would have thoght so as there must be some cutout in the circuit to stop the motor when the mirror has completed its move. I have had a lookaround but can't find anything that stops them working if you pull it out. I wondered if it is a switch contact problem; as in the past three months my right mirror has failed to move out three times, it always works when I tried it again. I may be worth taking the switch out and spraying it with switch cleaner. I don't think this problem has every been sloved on the BBS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suprash Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 Chris, snap.......I have the same with the passenger side...... /Watching closely in the back ground...............

flukey-lukey Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 I think it might be a broken/badly connected wire on the back of the switch. My electric mirrors weren't working and thats what it was Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suprash Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 What the main switch on the dash board......how do you get it out, does it just pop out........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flukey-lukey Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 What the main switch on the dash board......how do you get it out, does it just pop out........ yeh, take the dash panel off and unclip the plug. Mine was a wire that went into the plug, not the actual switch, if all the wires on the plug are fine maybe try a new switch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thing is the switch works on one side, just the other doesnt flip in, so I know the switch itself is ok, but it could be conectors on the back of it for the other side, as I know that motor is ok as I have replaced the whole wing mirror intially thinking it was probably the motor that had gone......

StuartW Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Any advances as i need to know where the mirror relay is situated? I am sure there is one?...somewhere maybe under the passenger dash? p.s. Terminators spellin has improved Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbloodyturbo Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 do all irrors move in and out, i understand some are electric and some are not but can you manually fold your mirrors in to stop people from walking into them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StuartW Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 do all irrors move in and out, i understand some are electric and some are not but can you manually fold your mirrors in to stop people from walking into them? Yes they are quite stiff but all mirrors fold. Electric folding ones are manually overridden and manual ones have a strong detent to push past. They tend to click quite horribly when you do this:blink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

osso Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 its more than likely to be the motor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Branners Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 are you sure the electric ones can fold in manually? I cant get mine to do that and the electric side of things isnt working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kopite Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 are you sure the electric ones can fold in manually? I cant get mine to do that and the electric side of things isnt working. My driver's one stopped working too and i can push it in manually, not sure if it's meant to be able to do that though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suprash Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Ha, I love old threads being ressurected, I still havent sorted this or even looked at it lol, but then Im not often bothered about flipping in my mirrors........must get round to it though....

Branners Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 My driver's one stopped working too and i can push it in manually, not sure if it's meant to be able to do that though how much of a push does it need? I dont want to rip it off, but I certainly gave it more of a push than a manual set of mirrors needs to push in. JB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkyspar Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 The relay that operates the motor directly is inside the mirror itself.. Its a door card off jobby. Looking at the wiring diagram, it is simply a power feed to the switch unit, which then goes directly to the mirror unit...so nope I don't think there is a relay I have those flippy mirrors but the right hand side one has stopped working! I have listened to it the motor does not make any noise when activated, Is there a fuse for each mirror??? What should I do???? Chris hope these help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
