Morning Fello PH'ers!

Merry Chrimbo to you all!

My passenger-side heated mirror has stopped 'heating' and clearing the ice/mist off when using the heated rear screen on my Mk IV GT TDi Golf, the drivers side is still working ok so a fuse shouldn't be the problem?

Could it be a wiring issue or does the glass need replacing?? Any ideas or anyone had the same issue??

Thanks for any help!! Have a great Xmas and New Year!!

Swap the glass side to side, obviously it won't clip in but the connectors (two spades) are the same. Be very careful when removing the glass, gently pull the bottom of the glass out as far as if will go to try and get your fingers behind then pull it from the middle and NEVER the edges.
