Heated Mirror Not Working on Driver's Side

[BryantJT]

I noticed today on my way to work that my driver's mirror stayed fogged over and was cold to the touch vs the passenger mirror. Does anyone know what pins the heated mirror are on the door harness? Also, what should be the resistance value across those pins or should I just be looking for continuity? I will likely end up at the dealer for warranty work but the replacement glass is only $50 and the only dealer that will service the truck under warranty is an hour drive each way. My "local" dealer is 5 minutes away but they won't service anything that they don't sell.

have you taken your doors off? if you have its likely that the pin may have got bent the last time you connected it.

I've taken them off multiple times over the summer. Anyone know which pins feed the mirrors?

I don't, but from when my power mirrors failed just looking at the plug it was pretty obvious which one was out of place

I had to use the selfie cam on my cell and some offset tweezers but you were correct, one pin was out of place. All fixed now.

Good news is after I fixed mine I never ran into that issue again and I have used the plug more times since then, I am jsut really carefull now. I also detached the drivers side plug from being mounted against the wall. It seems to help me line it up better
