folding Mirrors

[Big_daddy]

Right ... back in 2 mins! Been bugging me since i read this thread

Nope - definitely NOT folding and no broken switch

Does it turn until the mark is pointing downwards - there should be a symbol at the bottom??

You will need to turn your ignition on for it to work. It does work when you have been driving and have switched your engine off - up to the point where you remove your key.

Edit: Do you mean they are not folding when they should be or that they are definitely not folding mirrors?! Feel free to ignore the above!

 

[Big_daddy]

yeh only works with ignition in.

 

[UncleFester]

There's no symbol at the bottom of mine and the dial definitely won't turn past the drivers side mirror select point. I am pretty sure they're just not folding ones although they are heated.

That's with ignition on or off

You probably don't have them then , there would be a mark at the 6 '0 Clock position to turn to.

Just out of interest can they be manually folded?

Yes, I've done that before - they're not 'fixed' in place.

 

[Big_daddy]

Yeh, but i herd that you cant fold electric mirrors manualy, thinks it states that in the manual.
has any tried folding them? did they mess up or still work?

Yeah I've done it as I had no choice the motor needed reseting/the unit was replaced under warranty. The mechanics at seat said you can do it occasionally if you really have to. As long as the button is in the right position relevant to where you want to move them to.

YAY - found out on my way home last night - my mirrors are electric folding AND heated

You need to put on your rear window heater for them to come on - cheers guys

Do you think that it is stander on the FR+ 150?

 

[Big_daddy]

Its not sure, its 50/50 thing . some leons have them and some dont. its a factory fitted thing. Most cupra dont have them.

hi ive got a cupra r with folding mirrors but i carnt adjust the glass how do i do this or will something be broken?

 

[Big_daddy]

its the same nob. instead turning it clock wise 6clock to fold the mirrors in.
To adjusat the left mirrors, turn the nob to 10 clokc and nobn becomes into a joystick that you could move mirror up, dwn, left right.
The adujst right turn the nob to 2 clock. and adujst the nob to move the mirror
