Dziękuje za Filmik. Przydał się w rozebraniu losterka w xc60 2014 po lifcie. Tylko lekkie zmiany i można było od nowa cieszyć się składanym lusterkiem.
Great video, just fixed my mirrors this way. I took the mirror glass out for easy access to the plastic clips, and also used a socket and hammer to put the press nut back in place. Great guide thanks 👌
This is awesome - thanks so much. I was able to repair my mirror, as the little locating pin was stuck in the retracted position just as yours was. Your comments and instructions are very clear and easy to follow. Well done!
What is the little black box pin to motor? I think what the my problem is it...If I supply 12 volts with the battery it works, but ordinary don't work..
Want to add the positive comments here - as a retired mechanical engineer but new to the XC60 ranks, I absolutely flipped my shit when a young teenager dragged my mirror right round in a carpark and the mirror began to behave as you describe - this fix albeit damages the plastic a little removing the clamp washer was spot on for the cause & repair - top tip, order spare M12 clamp washers as mine is currently still orbiting earth as it pinged off 😂😂 - had a few spares fortunately else I would have been using some choice language!!! - saved £250 in the UK on a replacement mirror housing - many thanks!!! Also found a household picture tack was strong enough and the right size to tap out the seized pin without drilling 😉👍
I was able to fix this problem without disassembling or replacing the mirror. It was your first video showing the internals of the assembly that helped me figure this solution out, so thanks for doing the dirty work and for posting your helpful videos! My passenger-side mirror was unfolding to a hyper-extended position, well past the normal stop position, but fixing it was pretty easy. Since first fixing it, I rhave been able to reproduce the problem by manually over-extending the mirror from the normal open position (as if someone had bumped it in a parking lot while unfolded) then using the motor fully retract the mirror without manually pulling it back into normal position first. In this state, I think the motor drive is engaged with the breakaway ring, so it drives entirely in the breakaway position allowing full range of motion past the normal stop. The key to fixing this is to get the motor to disengage from the breakaway ring. If your mirror is over-extending, start with the mirror folded in, then unlock the vehicle to start it unfolding. As it reaches the normal position, give the mirror a gentle shove inward. Do it quickly, and the motor's current limiter will not stop the motor, and the motor will continue running freely while you hold the mirror in the normal position. After a few seconds, you will hear a loud click and the motor will stop. Ensure the mirror is securely in the normal unfolded position by giving it a gentle wiggle and it should stay in place. Then lock and unlock the vehicle to fold and unfold the mirrors. Everything should work well from then on. Hope this works for anyone else with this problem! I've posted a video of the fix here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-TKEe7RQq_8E.html
Great vid thank you for the instructions! so need plastic tools, punch, torque 10 liquid wrench (would wd40 or a silicon lube work?) Dremel to clean and flat head to pry.
Great video, I am 75% through doing the repair on a 2013 XC60. Went exactly as you described. I used a 1/16" drill bit to enlarge the hole behind the pin and push it out and a larger bit to clean the hole out. Used synthetic oil after to lube pin. I will use anti-seize to cover the main pivot point. Headed to hardware store to get replacement motor screws and hopefully that silly spring clip which got quite mangled. Thank you very much for post this and saving me big money!!
You can replace that locking clip that was so hard to get off, with a snap ring. this way you can take it apart again easily. I got a snap ring assortment and snap ring pliers for $25 on Amazon
I had an intake n #1 worst than that with only 20k miles. No tracking or pulling to 7k rpm’s either. Just regular driving Pretty much all my intakes were worn Exhaust were all good $6k later we will see after I put 10k miles on them I’ll check again to see if these so called MIGHTY MOLDSTAR lives up to its reputation.
Hi, instead of prying the cover off and risking damaging the housing clips, the Volvo VIDA procedure for accessing the repeater / blinker assembly shows to remove the mirror and then you can access the clips of the housing, minimising risk of damage. There are also other videos showing the replacement of the repeater on youtube that follow this recommened method. Just a tip for others, but thanks for showing us the way on the rest!
Excellent video, followed the steps and repaired the sticky pin. Problem solved. I had purchased a bag of 10 press nuts ahead of time, and they worked perfectly. Removing the push nut is the biggest PIA of the entire procedure, unless there is a tool I can't imagine getting it out intact. And just like the video, once the press nut is removed the spring and notched spacer will fly into the air. P/N on the bag of push nuts is 4f-07T-07C-Z-02L-06P. Hope this helps.
Thanks for the video, very helpful, it helped me fix the issue on BOTH mirrors on my XC60. Also, I did manage to find the right sized press-nut (or "push on washer") on Amazon! I had to buy a 280 piece pack of them, but it came with 20 of the large size which fit the XC60 perfectly! When I first repaired the driver side, the old press nut wouldn't fit tightly enough. As a result, when the mirror would retract you would hear the motor continuing to run, and the small "stop spring" clicking away. It would eventually stop running after about 30 seconds. As soon as I used a NEW press-nut, it held the main spring firmly enough and fixed the issue. I also replaced the rusted torx screws while I was at it. They were very difficult to unscrew, the torx head was completely stripped. I ended up cutting a small slot in the head with a Dremel and unscrewing with a flat head. I find it ridiculous that the dealer solution is to simply replace the entire unit. This is so unnecessary and very wasteful. I would have hoped a company like Volvo would be a little more environmentally responsible in 2021. Thanks.
Hi, I am trying to fix that mirror.. I cleaned and put all parts like it was, but the problem was that I clicked unlock the car, the mirror was closing, different from the other side mirror. Have you noticed that moment? I am trying to find out, where is the right spot to fix
Thank you for this video! My drivers side mirror was operating the similar way and they replaced the entire mirror at Volvo during warranty period. Now the passenger side does the same but there is no warranty left. Since it costs about 650€, I will fix it myself. Thanks again!
Thank you very much for this very helpful tutorial !!! By this I was able to fix the problem with the mirror on our XC60 without hassles. The Torx to use is a 10! If someone has problems to reuse this stupid press-nut, you might try your local lawnmower repair service. These pressnuts are quite often used on them to fixate the plastic wheels on the axle.
hi my 2008 s40 has a folding mirror issue. the passenger side mirror folds most of the times but rarely unfolds. the motor is working because when every time the mirror folds you can hear the motor working. When the mirror doesnt unfold the motor is quiet like its not working or not getting power. Other times when both mirrors are unfolded and i try to fold them the driver side folds normally . the passenger side motor though starts working immediately but for the first few seconds the mirror doesnt fold. 3 seconds latter theres a big POP sound like something broke and the mirror folds properly. This started happening when another car hit my passenger side mirror slightly while my car was parked. But i dont think it broke something on the inside as sometimes it works fine. its more like something slipped out of place. do you have any ideas????
What is bad in this mirror? Everything... Disassembled mine. Heater is dead, orange light is dead due to wire dead, that "magic" pin is also dead. 141000km..
Really appreciate this video. Good walkthrough for my 2010 XC60. The pin wasn’t my problem, but I was able to clean everything up and found a broken wire to fix in order to get my mirror working again.
Hi there, I have the same problem you had right now. I am wondering how you reattached the broken wire? I tried to separate the plastic cover where the wire is covered but it is very hard to get off. Any help is appreciated, thanks!
