Fixing FN2 folding Mirror
Вставка

- Here's how i fixed my non-folding FN2/MK8 Honda civic mirror. Loads of videos on youtube about it, but i had to fix it so thought why not film it. Tried to make it as short as possible. No special tools needed. Probably just your 10mm for the battery and a little screwdriver to help with the cable clips.
So easy, even i can do it.

I didn't realise they were that easy to fix when they go wrong 😂 cheers mate👍🏼
So easy mate, you won’t believe it 😉
Cheers for this! Watched another video where they took the glass out which didn't seem right to me and this confirms it, ill be doing this tomorrow.
no worries mate, it's so easy. i think i saw the same video. thanks for watching, appreciate it.
Seen a few videos on changing the resistor and digging out all the sealant stuff from the unit which looks like a lot of work the SOD unit is about £19 new so not that much and maybe less from a scrap yard nice clear simple video btw
Thanks for watching and leaving a comment, I really appreciate it.
Honestly mate, I couldn’t be bothered to dig it out. Seem like a bodge to save £20.
I agree I think you’re better off just buying the part… whether you get Honda oem or not probably doesn’t matter too much.
Hope it helped and take it easy mate 😃
Hahahaha was waiting for the "get out you little bastard" 😂😂 in fact I said it while you was doing it 😂😂 this is my next job, nice one for the upload.
Haha you’re welcome mate, it’s super easy you’ll breeze it.
I should do some more uploads…. Been busy. Thanks for watching
There's a cheaper soution.
Instead of replacing the old part you can just replace the resistor for a few cents.
There's a ton of videos explaining this.
You’re right, and I knew they can be fixed cheaper with a resistor and soldering gun, But cost wasn’t a problem here… and this is much easier/quicker.
Especially if you don’t have a soldering iron. Or know how to use one.
If you’re on a tight budget then what you have suggested is the way to go for sure.
Thanks for commenting 😃
Wow only just come across this channel - love the content mate - but of advise title every video with Honda Civic type r Fn2 it’s all about algorithms - cheers
Ah mate, appreciate that, thanks for the advice i'll try it on my next one :D
Both my mirrors got broken off but when I replace them the new ones don't fold
Sorry to hear that bud… how’s that happened, nightmare.
Honestly, I've not had this feature all these years, I don't think I'll bother if I buy a civic with this problem...
So
Bought two
SODS drivers side working lovely but passengers wants to bend right around… switched them over and the right still works fine but 2nd still wants to bend to point of ripping itself off…. Help!
Mate I have no idea… sorry bud, that’s bloody annoying problem to have though. If you work it out let me know, good luck with it mate
I replaced my SOD but it still retracts too far both ways? Any ideas?
That’s weird dude, mine was just plug and play. Were they genuine OEM Honda parts?
@@yardspeed13 no, but I bought 2 and 1 did the job lovely and the other… well it’s trying to retract into another world
Both of my mirrors only fold in a tiny bit when I press the button. They move like a centimeter, and that's it. What do I do?
change the SOD units like i have in this video. You can get cheap ones off ebay... i prefer to use genuine Honda ones though.
@@yardspeed13 Ordered them already! Thanks for the advice.
@@WH250398 Sorry for the delay mate, been in the garage with my mates fn today. Those should fix your problem mate. Good luck with it :)
@@yardspeed13 Nah, not a problem. Just glad I soon won't have to run around the car anymore to fold the mirrors.
@@yardspeed13what are the cheap ones from eBay called, are you able to post the link please, thanks
What’s the name of that actual part u took out ,trying to get a replacement,got the same problem lol
It’s called a S.O.D shut off device… here’s a link to where I got mine.
You can get them cheaper but I prefer to know I got an oem part www.coxmotorparts.co.uk/honda-shop/genuine-honda-civic-mirror-shut-off-device-sod-unit-2006-2011/?gclid=EAIaIQobChMI_e3G4dOb9wIV2u3tCh12_QwGEAQYAiABEgKeg_D_BwE super easy to do .
Thanks for watching
I have the same problem with my car.
Hey man, annoying isn’t it?! Easy fix though.
