Sun Visors - do they light up?

[designer_label]

Hey guys

Im confused....looked in my handbook and cant find anything either...

Do they sun visors light up? im sure I thought they could - there is no obvious way of turning them on though....or if there is im being dumb....

Just seems a bit odd they dont light up as the interior light is in the back?

the lights should come on when you lift the flap to see the mirror I think

[designer_label]

thats what I thought but they dont!

[118]

hmmmm I don't know then I'm afraid

[dlpruk]

They light on mine! (A trip to the dealer methinks.)

[M.O.S]

Maybe your bulbs have gone!

[ayde_bury]

They don't light up on convertible MINIs - not sure which model MINI you have.

[designer_label]

Have a mini one

both dont seem to light up although they both have bulbs in? wierd

[theminiv]

is this on both the passenger and driver side? I would have a quick look at the bulbs, then have a look at the fuses to be honest. They should have their own independant fuse.

[designer_label]

Yeah both passenger and drivers side wont light up when you open the lid thingy to look in the mirror

I wouldnt no what fuses they are though, I wouldnt wanna take out the wrong one

[M.O.S]

I think that in the box in the passenger area (by the door opening) there is a list of what every fuse does, with a corresponding number. Try that!

Have you tried wiggling them around, the drivers one in my One flashes on and off (handy :\) I think there is a loose connection or something there but if you wiggle it right it stays on.

do they turn on whatever - even with ignition off?
