Hopefully someone can shine some light on this for me - Both my mirrors stopped heating at the same time. When i push the heated mirror button, i hear a click sound in the fuse box. I pulled the fuse for it, and the fuse appears to be good. i even tried swapping fuses (of the same rating) and i get the same result. Anyone have any thoughts to what might cause this?

I had a similar thing happen for the horn a little while ago- when i tried to honk all i would get is a clicking sound - my mechanic (who i trust) said my horn went and replaced it.

I have a set of brand new tow mirrors sitting around and i'm planning on putting those on soon anyways - but if the problem isn't the mirrors i want to fix it before i put the new mirrors on simply so i don't complicate things.

tldr: I hear a clicking in the fusebox when i try to turn my heated mirrors on and off, and the fuse is good. What might be the cause of this?

relay maybe? i want some tow mirrors lol

know where the relay for that would be by any chance? theyre sweet! got em on amazon for pretty cheap too.

Either the relay has gone bad, or a wire is loose/corroded/disconnected. I'd go with relay first because they are cheap if you buy generic. It's relay #114 for the heaters. My owners manual shows it in the far right-hand row, just below center, but the diagram for your truck is on the inside of the fuse box lid if I remember right.

It also controls something called a "heated backlight". I don't know what that is or you could test it and see if it's stopped working.

Thank you! i will replace the #114 tomorrow and see what happens. hopefully its that, i'm not too keen on tinkering with the wires.
