Yesterday, another motorist hit my offside door mirror; it still adjusts electrically, and the indicator repeater still works, but the demisting element has stopped working; any ideas on repairing it?  Thanks

There will be a plug of some description that directly connects onto the back of the mirror glass to power up the heater element. It is possible that this has dropped off because of the impact. 

Thanks Smurf,

Any idea how to remove the glass to get at the plug would be appreciated.

Sorry, I haven't the foggiest idea how to do it on an Alphard. It is normally as simple as inserting something under the glass and popping it out.

OK, I'll give it a go! 

 

Thanks for your help; much appreciated. 

 

Kind regards

 

Phil
