Warm wing mirrors

[kellogsj]

Hi everyone, I noticed today when I'd just got in my car that the heated wing mirrors were warm not long after I'd started the car up, but I hadn't switched them on. Is this mormal.

Thanks everyone,

John.

Did you turn your rear window heater on as they are connected?

On Mercedes they come on automatically below 9c but in my RC they only come on with the rear screen heater.

No, I hadn't turned the rear windscreen on. But after sitting in the car while the engine had been on for about 1 minute they felt warm.

Don't they just heat up if the outside temperature sensor detects that the temperature is less than about 4 deg C or so? They do on mine.

By the time I'd got to work they where cold again. So i think your right they must come on by themselves when the engine is started and it's less than 4 degrees outside. Thanks guys. [emoji1360]
