I have a 1999 buick century and never new it had heated mirrors--no button, no icon. I looked at the fuse in the cabin and saw a 10A fuse for the heated mirror. Learned something new today. Thanks!
Heated windshield wipers!!! All I was trying to do was figure out how to turn on the side mirror heat. Wish I had heated steering wheel! Learned so much! Thank you.
Thanks Steven. I recently bought a 2008 Frontier and noticed the Heated Mirrors logo, but couldn't find the button, so I appreciate this content. Also of note, while it's been over a decade since I sold it, I'm pretty sure my 1997 Subaru Legacy Outback had separate buttons for heated mirrors and rear defrost.
Thanks 2015 GMC terrain in 5° weather certainly helped knowing how to turn the heated mirrors after washing the car. just turning on the rear defroster switch did it.
Thanks for this Boss. All The Best from Bonnie Scotland. I'm still loving running around in my RAV4 AWD BLACK EDITION you talked me in to buying 3 months ago. 🙂👍👊🤣
Just want to say I’m a Toyota customer since 2014 started with a Rav 4 Limited and now I have the Toyota Highlander Platinum 2020 and I love it. But you’ve helped me out with a lot of the functions and having the cover shield in the lower compartment (2020 highlander) where tools for the tire! Would have never known, sales guy didn’t tell me🤦🏻♂️
Thank you for you guidance. I have a 2007 rav4. And I have had someone side swipe my mirror. I was able to snap it back in place. I love my Toyota. To my point, not sure if I have heated mirrors. But my specs for my car says... Pwr htd o/s mirrs. So I have Google this and found this helpful video. Thank you!! I will try it out when I get the chance.
Thank you! I just added my rear defrost to my climate presets under the auto start feature. My mirrors don’t have the symbol, but when I reached the car, they were warm.
Hi there, so glad I found your vid-thanks for sharing... I have a 2011 Chrysler with heated mirrors. I understand the icon does not light per a question and your answer in this vids comment section. I need to see if mine still work. How do I determine this, since the icons dont light up and right now, its very nice weather in sunny AZ. I look forward to your help. Take care.
I have a 2010 Toyota corolla had it for over 2 months now abd turns out i have it it ties with the rear windshield heater also i live in canada ontario even more helpful thank you very much sir
I have the 2018 chevrolet traverse awd lt and it look like it came with the heated side mirror because when I turn on the rear defrost. The two side mirror fog went away unless I'm just seeing things. I think it's a genius implementing the rear defroster with the side mirror all in one button even though it doesn't give any indication for the side mirror. Smart move GM by wiring it all into a single defrost button if you have the heated side mirror feature on the mirror. This is one that is well thought out on this 2018 traverse. And making life easier for the consumers.
Thanks Steven, i have a Dodge Journey 2018 and been complaining about seeing that icon on the mirror but no switch, i will try it as I see Rear and Front switches. -hope that's how it will work?
So the under the wind shield wiper doesn’t HEAT up the whole window, cause a Toyota salesman told me that? Do they have that for different cars Toyota models where it heats up the whole window?
no it is a double element like what is on the back window but it is only below the place that the wipers rest. can it clear the whole window? no. If you had ice on the window would it clear more rhan just the spot where the wipers, yes over time, and in conjunction with the defrost mode on your air conditioner it would help but it does not heat the whole window with that button.
the 2022 Hyundai Elantra Preferred (Canada, in the US it would be SEL) does not have the icon on the mirror and neither the small icon on the button (says only REAR) but the mirrors are heated, you can tell by turning on the "REAR" button and touching the mirrors, they will feel warm.
@@stevenwelchtoyota for sure, but you still helped me a lot: I landed into your video while searching online because according to the website I had it but I didn't know how to turn it on 🙂
@@jadeg4341 well for me, the old "REAR" button will turn everything on whether I need it or not (sometimes the rear glass has ice, or it is clouded but the side mirrors are OK) but I can tell 100% certain the side mirrors are being heated despite the lack of a dedicated button or the presence of the icon.
@@stevenwelchtoyota thank you steven. I thought its the same black panel on the winshield with de icer. I guess I'm safe then to put a small mirror over that symbol. Thanks!
I like the heated mirrors but problem is if there are any drops of water left on the mirrors they get water spots on them. I may disable it instead. I want it to come on separate from my rear defrost. On my 23 camry they are tied together. In the ealier models they were separated
@@stevenwelchtoyota Got my 2022 Highlander Hybrid XLE on Friday and could not figure out how to turn that heating on. Nothing about it in Owners Manual. If I could share something with you: 1. Extremely loud engine. Revs up all the time no matter how gently I press the gas pedal. So annoying. A vehicle that costs $50k is much louder than a cheap car? There is something wrong in that picture. How come I did not pick up on that on my test ride? 2. No heated steering wheel!!! Must be standard for 2022 only in Canada! Damn you Toyota….
Thank you. Literally brushed against the mirror getting out of the car and it snapped off. Completely corroded underneath. Trying to find a replacement but duct tape works for now...
Hi Steven, do you think a 2016 Rav4 hybrid limited has heated outside mirrors? I don't see an icon on the mirror itself. I see that there's a button for the heated windshield wipers and a button for the rear defroster, but no button or icon for the heated side mirrors. Thanks in advance.
Most likely not. If it does it is connected to the rear defroster so if they fog or ice up hit that and see if they clear or use a thermometer that you aim and pull the trigger and see that way
Wow. Thank you so much.. i just learned something new today.. i was asked if my car had heated windows, lol.. i asked how would i know lol... but. Im guessing i dont because my side mirrors stay frosted.. i haveba 2011 chevy impala
Hello I was trying to see if my 2021 Sequoia has heated outside mirrors... there is only an icon for close vehicle on the outside mirror, there is no icon for heat... I will have to read the owner's manual!!
My 2005 hyundai Tuscan has only one of the so called automatic features ie: ESP, Heated side mirrors, traction control, side air curtains & no side airbags...only a 5spd 2.0 lutre... but weren't said features the selling point back in 2005 ?
If that Rav4 was a Limited...I don't believe it has heated mirrors. Maybe the Toyota website is incorrect. Also...there are Tacomas with a heated mirror only button.
It has standard heated mirrors on the limited. And actually most rav4s have them standard. I have not seen a separate button for the mirrors that I can recall but that does not mean they dont exist. I love getting information I dont yet know.
