    Default Power Mirrors

    Hey, just wondering about the green light on the power mirror switch located on the drivers side arm rest. Ive had mine working only once for about a minute or so and thats it. I never knew there was a light there. My car is a 93 VR Acclaim.

    Does anyone else have the same problem as me???

    Any ideas on how to fix them???

    I own [or have owned] the following vehicles:
    1 x 1990 VN V8 Calais from new
    2 x 1992 VP Senator 5000 used.
    1 x 1994 VR Calais V8 used.

    Non of the bleeders had that little light every working. I was going to remove the switch and replace the bulb with a green LED, but frankly couldn't be bothered.
    I think the bulb they put in simply burns out, so given there is 12V on the switch, an LED properly hooked up should work for many years. Just be carefull as the switch can 'spring apart' with little spring contacts flying all over the place LOL.

    It was never connected and never has been. There is a simple mod that you can do to connect it up. Instructions were posted on here a while ago. But yes the light will work, you just need to supply it with power. If you pull the switch apart you will have little springs flying everywhere, but there is no need to pull the switch apart.
