    Thanks for the video, I'll be on this task soon also. I was surprised af when I found out this car doesn't have heated mirrors as standard. FYI Magna is OEM only manufacturer so those parts definitely aren't aftermarket ones.

      Thank you for that info, did not know.
      Yes, it's actually sad that such a high end car does not have such a basic thing as standard.

    Funcționează corect.O mențiune: oglinzile laterale se comanda independent de pornirea dezaburiri lunetei;dacă poziția butonului de reglare a oglinzilor laterale este pe poziția centrală oglinzile sunt încălzite,dacă poziția butonului este poziționat pe una dintre oglizi,dreapta sau stânga atunci atunci oglinzile nu mai sunt încălzite.Mulțumesc pentru soluția prezentată!

    Still any clue if it’s heating in the summer too? Or have you got the temp treshold?✌️

    • @UltimateDIY

      It's not heating in the summer. Don't know the exact temperature treshold.

    Could you tell how many volts are going through those wires for heating? I have non heating mirrors, but the wiring is there and multimeter shows 8 volts even no codes were changed with VCDS. Not sure if only installing the mirror with heating element will work. What would be your guess?

    • @UltimateDIY
      @UltimateDIY  Před 6 lety

      I don't really know. It might either use a voltage regulator to adjust the temperature or an on/off sort of timer. If it uses a voltage regulator, then maybe 8V would be good in a certain moment, but it might also just be really low current at 8V to check if the circuit is good. Maybe the second you put a load on that 8V it goes down to 0V. So could not really tell you anything for sure.

    Te salut. Intenționez sa instalez dinamice pe semnalizari având 2 moduri, cel normal și cel cu albastru la deschiderea mașinii. Masina nu are oglinzi rabatabile electric. Întrebarea mea este dacă pot trage firul pt semnalul albastru prin acel canal de mufe de pe interiorul oglinzii pana in interior la consola de pe usa?

    • @UltimateDIY
      @UltimateDIY  Před rokem

      Salut. Nu as putea sa iti spun asta, pentru ca nu am adaugat vreun fir acolo. Daca ar fi sa imi dau cu parerea, as spune ca da, ar fi destul de logic sa existe o metoda de a trage un asemenea fir.

    Do heat up all the time or certain outside temperature.

      @UltimateDIY  Před 5 lety

      Still not really sure about this. But I can say for sure that I have never needed them and found them off or something, no matter the season, so they might be on all the time.

    • @UltimateDIY
      @UltimateDIY  Před 5 lety

      For me as I do not have a dedicated button they are on probably all the time. But they do not go over the temp in the video so in summer they are off because of the outside heat.

    • @UltimateDIY
      @UltimateDIY  Před 5 lety

      At least this is what I think, because they were always on when I needed.

      On my 2013 a3 audi sportback, if I turn the left / right selection knob (say if you want to move mirror up down, in or out) to either left or right (and not in centre position), then heating of mirror stops. Try that. I hope it works for you.

    So this works with a video that doesn't include this or add this towards a vehicle that is compliant

    • @UltimateDIY
      @UltimateDIY  Před 6 lety

      Not 100% sure what you want to know, but I will give you an aproximate answer. All Audi A4 B8 have the cables for the heated mirrors included, so it's just a matter of adding the glass with the heating element on it, plugging it in and activating it from the door computers.

    • @Limeayy
      @Limeayy Před 6 lety

      oh ok. i was thinking about doing this for a non compliant vehicle haha

    • @UltimateDIY
      @UltimateDIY  Před 6 lety

      It can be done, but it's a little more work :)
      I'm also thinking of doing this for my wife's car for the next winter and that has no cables from the factory. So I need to buy the correct glass with the heating elements, add wires from the dashboard to the mirrors and add a button on the dashboard for them (that only has power when the contact is on). So it's a little more work, but it is worth it in rain, snow or frost conditions.

    Salut! am si eu o problema la un Passat B6 din 2009...am incercat ieri sa activez din VCDS (defapt un amic de al meu ce are acest VCDS, ceva functii, ca de ex mirror down, Auto-Lock The Doors will lock automatically when the Vehicle reaches a Speed of 15 km/h)...si am constatat ceva ciudat dupa aceste activari:
    1) La inchiderea din telecomanda, usa stanga si dreapta spate nu se mai incuie
    2) NU se mai aprind semnalizatoarele cand incui usile din cheie (se aprind doar cand descui masina din cheie)
    3) Geamul de pe usa cu pricina ( stanga si dreapta spate) nu mai reactioneaza la nimic, nici de pe consola de la sofer, nici de pe butonul de pe usa (nici macar lumina rosie a butonului nu se mai aprinde)
    4) Din colsola de la sofer pt geamuri si blocare usi, nu se mai ingalbeneste butonul cand blochez usile si nici cand blochez geamurile spate
    Astazi, am scos acele functii activate, dar situatia nu s-a schimbat...in plus pe diagnoza, apare ca, usa dreapta si stanga spate nu o vede (No Signal/Communication)...
    In plus, vad acum ca nici semnalizarea din oglinda stanga nu mai functioneaza si nici pddle light-ul din oglinda...ciudat rau... nu vad legatua dintre usa stanga si toate aceste erori (semnalizatoare, oglinda, geam, lumini interioae butoane).. ce pot face sa isi revina cum era inainte?? nu am facut screen la cod si la nou cod...
