Electric memory mirrors

[Nick Jones]

Yup - something else that does not work on the silver shed.... Not movement of any kind from either mirror from the controls.

I have established that the smoke has escaped from the memory module - big burnt patch in the middle of the board.

I've also managed to test all 4 mirror motors (finding the pin numbers in the plug is a bit of a mission!) and these all work in both directions and do move the mirrors. I've also checked that the feedback signals from the pots in the mirrors do something. No idea if the ranges are correct but pretty similar side to side.

So I've ordered another module, but I'm still a bit concerned about what killed the last one. Can anyone think of anything else I should check?

The other thing is that the car shows signs of having folding mirrors with an extra position on the mirror selector switch and the mirror fold relay in the passenger footwell box. However, in the drivers mirror at least there doesn't seem be a fold motor. Should the Sport with memory seats/mirror etc always have folding mirrors? Possibly the mirror has been replaced with the wrong one at some point?

Thanks
