Good point about the fuse, I should have mentioned I checked that first, it's fine. And yes, both mirrors are affected. Any thoughts?

Ah, both mirrors not working points away from the heater element itself being faulty. I had a similar issue on my old car, also traced to a connector. If both are out, a common connection point is suspect. Given the age and the error code, I reckon your 'faulty connector' hunch is spot on. Probably best to have a mechanic take a look before you start pulling things apart. Could save you some time and hassle.

Thanks for confirming my suspicions. I just got it back from the shop. Turns out it was indeed a faulty connector, as suspected. 95€ later, I have working mirror heaters again. No more scraping ice off in cold weather!

Sounds like a common issue. The heater element in the car mirror itself can fail, but you're right, a faulty connection is more likely. Have you checked the fuse for the mirror heaters? Sometimes it's the simple things. Also, do both mirrors not work, or just one?
