Hi,

 

I'm trying to sort out some wing mirrors for someone and have found 3 different types of connectors, 3,5 and 7 wires to 3 different types of connector block. I thought the only difference would be UK/Jap but does anyone know for sure what's what?

Series 2 onwards differs from series 1.

on both Jap and UK or just UK? Am I right in saying UK series 1 were just electric but series 2 were heated as well?

definatly differ between Jap S1 and Jap s2. I guess its becuase of heated yeh.

I didn't think Japs were heated at all, not series 1 or 2 :confused:

Im not sure, but there is definatly a difference. S2 plug has a lot more wires.

recently found this out when mines broke borrowed a mates mirror and the connector was different. mines is a jap import series1 the other is newer series2

Presumably initiated when the rear screen heated window is switched on ?

Yep was. have vs mirrior now lol!!!

Yep, i have series 1 mirrors, bought some series 2 thinking they would just plug straight in, but have the larger plug for the heated mirror. Rear demist button on, operates the heated mirror.

I didnt know they were series 2 till i tried to fit them lol

and just looked at 2 different mirrors, both with 5 wires but some of the wires are different colours :(

Right, just opened up a few mirrors and this is what I've found:

 

3 wires - electric

 

5 wires - electric/fold

 

5 wires (which 2 are black) - electric/heated

 

7 wires - electric/fold/heated
