Unable to set reverse mirror tilt

[Dominickohsy]

Hi, have tried setting the above mentioned but unable to get it going on my W221 S-Class.

Any advise?

Is your mirror selection set to the left mirror?

[Dominickohsy]

Yup. Set it before engaging reverse gear

Hope is not the side mirror motor faulty.

Some bros mention adjusting the mirror manually up and down a few times to "recalibrate" not sure if workable.

Engage reverse and manually tilt your mirror to your desired level. Now engage drive, wait for 10 seconds, does your mirror revert to its original position?

[Dominickohsy]

Nope. Non works.

If you're certain your car comes with this function, I'd recommend sending your car in for checking as the system may be faulty.

[Dominickohsy]

Looks like gotta send in for a check soon

Do you have the reverse camera in operation? I think if you have the reverse camera operational, then the left assist mirror will not tilt...

bro...I went through the sequence...then I found out that you are able to program this "exterior mirror convenient function" which you can assess through the command unit. go into "vehicle" and then you will find pictures of the car with highlighted areas where functions can be selected.

 

Select the convenient function you want using the knob and then you are done....

 

oh, you are to adjust the angle of tilt using the usual method / button found on the door arm rest.

Do you have the reverse camera in operation? I think if you have the reverse camera operational, then the left assist mirror will not tilt...

 

 

Don't think so. Mine has the reverse camera in operation while the left assist mirror still tilts.
