heated wing mirror glass failure

[MogulBoy]

Anyone replaced/fixed a failed heated door mirror glass on a 9X6?

Do you have to buy a new glass? How easy to fit yourself?

I might assume that it isn't a fuse problem as only one of them isn't heating (and the motorised functions still work) so presumably it's just the heating element, or possibly a dry connector.

Bump - for the nightshift.

I did it on my Cayenne, not mad expensive, just clip it out and push the new one in.

Thanks. I'll see if I can pry it off and take a closer look.

Check the pins in the plug connection first..........

Prise out the mirror trim from the window corner (door panel edge first, then once the clips are unclipped push the trim upwards to get it off its locator guide at the very top - don't pull it off you'll break the guide). The plug connection is then visible. Check for correct fit and contact corrosion - a common fault due to water ingress.
