Default Wing Mirror Memory

My left (I am in UK) passenger side mirror will not react to memory switches or auto return after using dip on reverse. Replaced drivers door switch. Mirror memory motor. Still no luck. It is set in SDD to work.

So my question is this. Which module controls the mirror memory? Under the seat one? Passenger side or drivers side? Is there a fuse that could have blown? Thanks.

Passenger mirror adjustments are controlled by the passenger side door control module, although the memory is held in the drivers door module . Communication between the two modules is via the SCP network. There is no fuse dedicated solely to the mirror adjustment so a fuse failure would affect more than just the mirrors.

Before changing anything, check the condition of the connectors to the mirror and the door module.

Used replacement modules are reasonable from the likes of Eurojags.com - a reliable UK specialist jaguar breaker (But phone, don't email!)

Sorted

I downloaded and ran SDD v139. Then selected passenger mirror memory. Turned it OFF left the system. Re-entered system selected it ON and bingo it worked!! Also did the same for the reversing function. Selected if OFF then reset then Selected it ON. Now that too is working!! Very happy guy here.

I wonder if a hard reset would have achieved the same result?

No. I can see your way of thinking and that occurred to me too. I have done at least 3 hard resets on the car. The last one, whilst I did the headrest fix, was for 4 hours. So its a good idea but alas it did not, and would not, work.

I do like your suggestions though.
