This site is awesome. I learn so much.
I don't have the EC mirrors for sure so off to the 38.00 ebay mirror. Thanks everyone. |

Interesting information you've provided there Q7, as usual. I always thought the mirrors were heated when the seat heating was turned on. At least that's what I've noticed in my '03.

Let me toss in that... I found the info posted above about 10 years ago...and I do wonder if BMW has tweaked the programming a little over the years. BMW has been putting heated mirrors on 5 & 7 series BMWs for decades as standard equipment...my 1991 735iL had heated mirrors. So if anyone finds any updated info as to the heated side mirror's on/off range...please chime in and update the info.

The update is that the ranges have been changed slightly, and depend on whether the wipers are on or not. Full training module here: http://www.bmwmotorsports.org/pdf/e7...%20Mirrors.pdf or use the Online References tab on this site, PDF info, E70.

Looks like I have some reading to do.
The only thing that makes me go hmmm (as to if the on/off ambient temp range changed for the e53)...is that the info above about the e70 mentions the LIN bus...which refers to the newer generation BMWs that have iDrive (e70/e65/e60/& the newer F body BMWs). The e53 uses the old communication bus like the e38/e39/e46 (Can, Diagnostic, I, K, M, & P bus). And the older on/off ambient temp range was for that generation BMWs. But the newer scale is basically what I had in mind as to wondering if BMW tweaked the range a bit. It really makes since to throw the wipers in the mix...because more than likely, it's probably raining or misting in warmer temps along with the excess humidity and condensation build up on the glass.
