Excellent video with very good information. The detailers took apart my mirrors and totally screwed them up during reassembly. You've been very helpful. Thanks for sharing

This is really useful! Someone manually folded my mirror while the powerfold was working and it now folds out to about 150% and tries to fold back in beyond the natural stopping point with a crunch and a pop. It’s bugged me for ages but haven’t understood the cause. From watching this, ny guess is that the stopper ring has spun out of position. Or perhaps that the spring is broken and not forcing it onto the hard stops. What do you think?

Most likely, but in either ways you will have to open it in order to fix it.

Abh, they're all about the same, just different exterior style mirrors. It's really a difficult job to disassemble and put back together. Replace with metal gears only, they won't fail like the original plastic gear

@@icku my mirror is not folding.As well, passenger's mirror has the problem.When i press the folding operation, the driver's mirror is folding, but the other is not.Durring the folding i am hearring the silenoid (motor) turning, without folding the mirror.The problem , i suppose, that is about the spring that makes the move of the mirror.So, my asking is, how can i open my mirror safely in purpose to can fix the spring?

TY great video. I understand the intention but unfortunately it doesn't always work to protect the mirror, that's why mine are broken now! Mine aren't the exact ones shown here but they're basically the same parts and same design. In my case, the plastic gear is broken. Do you know how I can find a replacement of that gear? or maybe have one made?

I have recently bought a power folding wing mirrors for my Vauxhall Astra K. My garage has installed it but unfortunately, it still doesn’t fold as it should have (I know you can unfold it by putting the (L&R button) and pressing the down button). Is it due to our car being incompatible to this feature or an electrical failure (e.g. incompatible pin socket or wrong instalment)? Would appreciate much of your help.

Not sure that's due to the steering wheel possition. Those in the video are also from UK and there is no difference from such from rest of of Europe.

Thanks for the video mate. May I ask if my motor has only two wires. Are they both receiving 12V input (folding n unfolding) or are they positive n ground? Thanks!
@mahed82
@mahed82 Жыл бұрын
There should be only one ground and one for each one of the moves left right Up and down also for the power folding one for out and one for retract and one for heater mirror and the one for turn signal. Just one ground for everything all the rest is for all the different movements. I hope you get it ,sometimes you can find the ground because is grounded with the chassis or door panel of the door that make contact with some metallic part of the same mirrors.

I recently purchased a 2022 Acura vehicle with a power folding mirrors. I folded the mirrors today for the car wash, only to cringe while watching the attendant manually unfold the mirrors. Given the design is likely similar to this, would you expect there to be damage to the motor/mechanism over the long run? When I pushed the mirror button then seemed to resynchronize themselves without any issue. Maybe they've designed for this scenario. There's nothing in the manual for this...

Yep, no worries. They are designed for such scenario or to be hit by some other car passing by. No harm can be done this way.

Ok I have a problem with my mirror, its power folding. So it open, partially and then using the opens and close switch to open, it opens after a few minutes. However, the mirror is fixed when it's open or close, there is some play. Do you have an idea of what happened and how to fix it. It's a Hyundai Ioniq.
