Mirror Change

E46Mark · 11-19-2009, 11:06 AM

Hi,

On my 330ci drop top it has auto fold, heated mirrors.

Some so and so decided to drive into the side of me while I was parked and drive off...

I purchased some m3 mirrors which were auto fold, heated. The issue is the cables were cut. So I cut the cables off my destroyed mirror with the aim of joining them.

There are 11 wires from the mirror and 11 from the conector.

The colours do not match any ideas where I can find which cable would join to which ?

Thanks

the colours are

brown
brown
green
pink
blue
orange
black
white
white
red

and

brown
green
blue
orange
black
white
red
grey
blue and red (2 colours on the wire)
green and brown (2 colours on the wire)
black

I managed to adjoin 4 that makes the glass move but that is it so far. It looks as 8 match 8 in colour so I did this, this leave only 3 v 3 so I tried all possible combinations this did not work.
