    The mirrors on my 2019 Great Wall Steed keep turning themselves back to face the car when I turn it off

    Great Wall Great Wall Advice Great Wall Steed Great Wall Steed Advice Great Wall Steed 2019

    My 2019 Great Wall Steed’s electric mirrors turn themselves back in facing the car when I turn the car off. Is there fuse that I need to replace? If so where is it located? I have looked in the fuse-box next to the battery and it doesn't say anything about mirrors.

    Believe it or not, Steven, this is not a fault with the vehicle at all and something it’s actually designed to do. The theory is that by automatically swinging the exterior mirrors close into the car when parked, there’s less chance of a passing car or truck smashing the mirror.

    This technology has its origins in Europe where roads are narrow and parking is a bit more relaxed than it is in Australia. Even so, it’s no bad thing to have happen when you leave the car unattended.

    So, while there will be a fuse that controls this circuit, our advice is to leave it alone and let the mirrors do their thing. Replacing an exterior mirror on a late-model car is never cheap. As long as the mirrors fold out to their normal position each time you start the car, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with your Great Wall.
