Jonathan,

My '90 Vanagon has power mirrors which are heated, too, when you switch on the
rear screen defroster. (On this double-glazed Westy, there actually isn't a rear
screen defroster, so the dash switch only controls the heated mirrors).

Does switching on the heat make the mirrors work? I'm thinking frostbite. What's
your temp over there?

Regards from rainy Holland,
