Ive just been out there having a play, cleared the codes and it worked for all of 20 seconds then back on.

Ive now coded out the folding mirrors with carly and then cleared the codes and no eml, will find out in the morning when the wife does the school run if it stays off.

Was reluctant to code the frm as last time it bricked my ecu and cost me £250 to get it repaired, worked this time though.

Will report back, not too fussed on the folding with pock as i will be getting a new car this year and trying to explain to someone the eml is on because of a software fault for the heated mirrors actually working wont go down to well
Are you manually folding the mirrors out with the engine on?

it's possible it could be low battery voltage so the folding and unfolding off battery alone might be triggering errors.

when you decode the auto folding it might be a coinsidence?

So i coded the folding mirrors not to work of the key fob and cleared the codes, again light styed of for all of a minute and then back on again, i also dont fold the mirrors with the bitton on the door so this is getting super annoying as to why its happening.

All parts of the mirrors work including the heated part, they both fold and all mirror glass moves, also passenger side dips in reverse.

I am getting a fault code that its low voltage popping up all the time now aswel, but thought this might be because im diagnosing/coding on carly with just the ignition on, to code yesterday i had to turn the engine on to enable coding as the voltage was low.
How old is your battery?

Might be worth checking voltage as my PO had a new battery installed at the dealer which lasted a whole 2 years and 1 week...
