Heated mirrors

Post by touring » Wed Nov 20, 2024 4:31 pm

My 2017 x5 seems that the heated mirrors have stopped working both together, I understand they have a phased control ie: outside temp dependant 100/75/50/25%.

Today at -2C they did not come on. What should I be looking for is it a fuse or the mirrors themselves ( strange that they both fail together)
Any help gratefully received.

Check fuse F22 in the front power distribution (fuse) box. It should be a 7.5A according to the wiring diagram. If the mirrors still move then the issue is elsewhere.

Heater control is via the Body Domain controller via a green/yellow wire. Module is behind the drivers side footwell side trim kick panel. Temperature sensor also connects to it so if you are seeing the External temp then the sensor is OK.

Thanks X5Sport, I will check the fuse tomorrow in the light, the external temp is working fine, I will report back tomorrow.

Thanks
