x308 Powerfold mirrors keep blowing a fuse
Discussion
Hello
As the title says, the powerfold mirrors on my 99 x308 XJR keep blowing a fuse.
It happened the other day.
I pressed the button to fold the mirrors and just as it started to fold it died.
So I changed the fuse under the O/S rear passenger seat and it blew the fuse again
Does anyone know how to fix this?
Kind regards
Aide

Short circuit or high resistance in mirror motors.
You could try by disconnecting one mirror and see if the fuse still blows.
( However if it is a resistance problem then the fuse probably wont blow )
Ideally connect an ammeter in the circuit but i doubt you have one, then carry out further testing. bit of a tricky one without test equipment.
