Fuse?

or

Duff switch.

The heating element is on the same circuit as the rear screen.

The adjustment is its own circuit.

for current limitation purposes, you may find that the motors will only work when the demist function is turned off.

that is how mine works

demist off - motors work.
demist on - motors are disabled.

simples!

I should point out though that I retro-fitted mine by building and fitting a full factory style add-on powered mirror loom.

[joe cavalier sri]

no they dont work with demist off what fuse is it on the fuse bord ? cheers

[Robsey]

Fuse 12 - Heated rear window, Electric mirrors etc.

[joe cavalier sri]
