Tim (VW Nerd) why are you selling? Have you upgraded to a more powerful engine in your T25?

Just a quick update!
I am still waiting for the water temperature sensor ordered from the USA, Jen recently had a 2 week wait for something to come from the State’s so still have a few more days on that score if her experience is par for the course.
But on the bright side I went into Autocraft today to collect the MOT Pass Certificate so that I can send away to have the car registered in my name and get it taxed. You never know I might actually get to drive the thing around before too long!
paul...... quick solution idea buy the VW guy's engine rob the sensor and sell the engine on......

I found that one of the wires had come out of one the funny cylindrical connectors so I re-attached that and tried it out. For a few seconds I thought I could hear clicking from the passenger side mirror then nothing. The driver’s side did not do anything at all.

Further to the above post..... just for info, the Red & Black connector carries 12v for the Heated Mirrors, but only comes alive when the Heater Rear Screen/Hatch is switched on via the dash button.
There are no relays for the adjustment of the mirrors, just the switch to select which mirror you want to adjust, and the joystick for mirror position.
If nothing appears to be happening, there is a 10amp fuse which feeds the mirror circuit.
It is also possible that the clicking you heard was due to the mirror being at its limit of travel, and the motor still being activated. In this condition the mirror would be twitching.
Before trying again, I would check for a blown fuse, then make sure the mirror selection switch is fully one side or the other (not in the middle where nothing happens) and if the clicking still happens, then move the mirror manually by pressing on the mirror glass its self, where it is protruding most, it will move and click a few times and hopefully get into a position where it will move in all directions with the joystick.
Hope this helps.
