wrighthere Posted June 29, 2005 Report Share Posted June 29, 2005 I have the function on my B5 for the wing mirrors to fold in. However they are simply not working, any ideas? Its cant be a fuse as everything else that would be retalted to that fuse works! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waitey Posted June 29, 2005 Report Share Posted June 29, 2005 I thought they did on mine, but I think it was an optional extra when new. I could be wrong though,hopefully someone else might know for sure. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wobby Posted June 29, 2005 Report Share Posted June 29, 2005 I thought mine did, but the didn't !!! It was an extra on mine that wasn't fitted. Mine has the switch for the job, but not the mirrors or the wiring Someone else might know, did they used to work when you got the car?

wrighthere Posted June 29, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2005 Well only just got the car and the option in there and it details it in the manual!! They just dont work!!! I cant believe i would have the option if the option wasn't there (if you see what I mean)! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wobby Posted June 29, 2005 Report Share Posted June 29, 2005 hey! you following me Tian That last statement has confused me. There is an option to fit folding mirrors, they even fit the switch for it even when they dont fit the mirrors!! (folding mirrors that is) I'M LOST NOW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrighthere Posted June 29, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2005 I'm more than lost! I cant believe that an option would be fitted and even bother to light up the icon in the dark, for it just not to be connected? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
felixthecat1 Posted June 29, 2005 Report Share Posted June 29, 2005 Okay, VW are know for doing this. For example, even if your car doesn't have fog lights if you stick your hand up there you will find the loom. It's just not worth while taking it off. All you have to do then is buy the switch, OEM lamps and check the fuse spec. I should think the same applies to folding mirrors. Buy the mirrors with motors fitted and Bob's your aunties lover. All this is straight from a Stealers mouth, I have no hard proof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wobby Posted June 29, 2005 Report Share Posted June 29, 2005 True, But its best to look first. People say mine has a loom for cruise control, but i cant find it. The dealers says my model/ year never had it fitted. One before did and the one after did.... but not mine Mine has the switch for folding mirrors, but no motors in the mirrors. I played ages with the switch trying to make the mirrors move RobK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ocrp Posted June 29, 2005 Report Share Posted June 29, 2005 I had the same issue as did a friend. We both have the option on the mirror control button, and I was killing myself for weeks and looking through the manual. Spoke to my local dealer who told me its an extra that wasnt fitted on that model. VW fit it as standard. Anyway, I think my previous owner had the door changed after an accident.

wrighthere Posted June 30, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 Well I'm glad its not just me! I did exactly the same spent ages mucking about with it looked in the manual then went back and tried again etc.... How annoying is that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asta Posted June 30, 2005 Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 just wondering... do you have an icon for heating the mirrors and an icon for folding the mirrors? i only have the heated mirrors icon but i think the control moves in both directions.
