Dear Allan, I just changed my mirror indicators from original to running led. Thanks to your instruction it was an easy 15 min job. Thank you for that video! Matthias
Awesome, thanks for this. Some idiot just smashed into my Mk5 mondeo wing mirror and smashed the indicator glass to pieces. Luckily the rest of the mirror housing is fine so just need to order the LED repeater and fit myself now I found your video. Awesome 👏🏻
I'm having a erlated issue - how do you replace the black plastic mirror surround? This video got me as far as having all but one screw removed, the last one being the bottom one, next to (and obscured by) the folding mirror hinge. Any hints?
Hope you can help, new indicator fitted on the drivers side, unfortunately it does not work, the garage checked for error messages but still no go (the lamp has been tested and it ok), any ideas please
Hello. Is it possible to change the LED turn (indicator) light strip on the front and backlights or does this require the change of the entire head and backlight lamp? Service has told us only the entire set can be changed and per lamp, it costs a little over 1800 EUR.
Just watched video on how to replace mirror led indicator lamp. Mine isn't working. Bought new led unit - also not working. Have confirmed new unit isn't faulty as works connecting to other side. Just won't work on drivers side. Other mirror electrics are fine. Any suggestions.
check the connections in the multi plugs between the door and the "A" pillar...if dampness gets into those multi plugs the terminals will corrode and cause various things on your door not to work
I had to change mine a few years ago after a large bug hit the mirror signal and made a hole in it, water got in... the mondeo and the fusion have a slightly different mirror signal style... i have also heard the connectors in the doors are poorly designed and may let water in the connectors. I believe this is happening to me rn because the signal is flashing sporadically and the mirror isnt accepting commands
Did all of this, replaced the indicator and... Still not working. The replacement works as I tried it on the passenger side plug, but not on the drivers side. Everything else on the mirror works just not the indicator, any ideas what's wrong?
Hi friend .can I ask you question ? My wife had accident and smashed black plastic arround edges ,ford dealer told me I need full mirror . Is there any chances to only change black plastic housing( frame)?
the mirror is sold in parts, you can buy the mirror assembly which is the main frame with the mirror glass...the mirror black backing cover is sold separately
@@piotrwojcik1756 did you manage to replace your frame? Mine is cracked also. I tried to remove it but don't know how to access one remaining screw. It seems you need to remove whole mirror and then disassemble it what also might be a challenge.
@@rysiok hi.no ,still waiting for part to arrive. Look on TH-cam for some more videos how to disassemble mirror from ford mondeo, I have found few before
the mirror only comes in three parts... the glass... the back cover and the rest is all one assembly you have to buy as one unit which needs to be unbolted from the door
@@alan4x Thank you for answering! I mean this part: rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.de%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F264311712884 It seems to be attached with clips to the main body. Isn't it possible to exchange it without much de-assembling?
I tried to replace the plastic surround. Can get all the screws out bar the bottom right one nearest the passenger window. If anyone can help would be much appreciate it. Have been quoted £400 - £500 to replace the whole mirror, which is frustrating as it's just the plastic surround thats broken.
@@davidcrone7439 Best choice would be ripping it off of the unaccessible screw and than glueing this screw into /onto the new plastic housing, I have been told.
@@luftbild I'm seeing the logic of that! That'll be my next try, perhaps using my trusty multi-tool to slice the screw off cleanly. I'd say three out of four mounting points should suffice
1st and Great Work Alan! Keep up the Good Work and I Love My Taxi Drivers! I only say thank U to taxi drivers at🦓crossings! Did U See What I did there again! Regular Drivers sod em! Budum🥁I'm a Tosser! ;)
Hi, Alan. This is the third time one of your videos has helped me do a job without having to make mistakes from doing it my way. Many thanks. Iain
Dear Allan,
I just changed my mirror indicators from original to running led. Thanks to your instruction it was an easy 15 min job. Thank you for that video!
Matthias
Hi mate what leds did you use?
I just had to replace my indicator and your instructions were spot on, thank you
Alan you are a star - thank you so much for all your videos . Absolutly spot on and saved me a small fortune in otherwise botched repairs.
thank You for this important video! I have searched hours for this!!
This was perfect, I was done within 10 min of walking out to my garage :)
I was wary to do it at first but your instructions are 100%.
Awesome, thanks for this. Some idiot just smashed into my Mk5 mondeo wing mirror and smashed the indicator glass to pieces. Luckily the rest of the mirror housing is fine so just need to order the LED repeater and fit myself now I found your video. Awesome 👏🏻
them indicator lamps are expensive
Thnx alan i am from morocco one of your followers

Brilliant video. Without knowing the right method it would be so easy to damage when trying to remove the indicator lamp unit. Thanks
Great Video ... you are the Mk5 Mondeo-hero ...
cheers
Thanks Alan. I saved small fortune replacing indicator myself😁👍
Thanks for the video (greetings from Estonia)

ive got the same problem m8 bought a new surround and cant fit it
@@red-zb1si ended up using a multi tool to cut of the screw that you can't get to and used a putty type adhesive for a little added support
@@laverda668 cheers m8 thats was my last resort cant see another way dealer wants 322 quid to fit
I have a 2016 ford fusion with my passenger side lamp out. Is the Modeo the same thing?
Hope you can help, new indicator fitted on the drivers side, unfortunately it does not work, the garage checked for error messages but still no go (the lamp has been tested and it ok), any ideas please

Interesting as always and i like your style 👍
how did you remove the mirror mines completely broke,bought a new unit

Alan have you had any wire breaks when doing these? Your video has helped with replacement but it’s still not working. Part is from Ford

Ok, but how remove the frame in that mirror? Have you got any video?

Still not working. The replacement works as I tried it on the passenger side plug, but not on the drivers side. Everything else on the mirror works just not the indicator, any ideas what's wrong?
Thanks so much mate...saved me a lot of money! Cheers...
Great videos :D Do you know how to sperate the mirror house from the mirror arm?
you can unbolt the mirror from the door but you are not meant to separate the mirror from the arm

What year is this mondeno? I have a fusion in the states and I’m looking to make the same repair and the internals look identical.
2016
Fabulous video Alan 👍🏻
Hello Alan! Could you describe to me, how to change the black plastic frame of the mirror? Would be very helpful!
the mirror only comes in three parts... the glass... the back cover and the rest is all one assembly you have to buy as one unit which needs to be unbolted from the door

The dotted line on the mirror what is that for
it's border line of straight mirror image and curved (deformed) image to see more wide.
Any probs with those auxbeam leds yet alan
they have been working well so far
@@alan4x thanks defo fit them when i get a h/l failure
Hi. I cant replacement frame mirror. Can you help me?

The mk4 was nice and simple, shame ford had to change the design.
