Rear view mirrors control

[Slow_movin]

Greetings:
Got our 2018 FR3 30DS in June. Have done the CHF and had front end aligned and that's about all thus far. Really like the FR3 and we have a really good Ford Dealer about 15 miles away and they service big trucks so that's a plus.

Problem: rear view mirrors don't work..neither side. I have pulled the dash panel back a little to see if they are wired and they are, so, it's something else. I suspect maybe a fuse or, etc. but don't have a clue where a fuse for the mirrors would be....don't think it would be in the main box (haven't checked yet). So, if anyone has a clue or has had a fix on this I would appreciate any input. Thanks

Unless they put an inline fuse for the mirrors, there are 2 main fuse boxes. 1 to the left of the steering column and the other in the engine compartment behind the air filter.
Hope this helps.

Thanks Drivmsafe. I'll check it out.

Nice to see that they've added power/heated mirrors. I had to retrofit my 2015 for that feature........

@Kadiddle... Was it an fairly easy conversion? Been thinking about doing our 2014.

Regarding those of us that got manual mirrors and so as not to hijack this thread, please visit:

It was a significant task but nothing impossible. Being an electrical engineer helped. PM me for other info.

Well, my problem with controlling the rear view mirrors has fixed itself. All of a sudden the mirrors on both sides are now working properly. Must have been the eclipse (LOL).
Regarding some of the comments above, I do have powered rear view mirrors and a heated mirror control switch. 2018 30DS with 50 amp service.
Hope that all of my problems resolve themselves like this...
