Hello, recently I purchased a kit of folding mirrors. After installed and coded everything I noticed that when I lock the car, the driver's side mirror folds but the passenger's mirror not, but I unlock my car the driver's side unfolds and the passenger's side folds. I think that 2 cables on the mirror plug have been switched. Do someone have the pin scheme or diagram where it says the function in every pin? Is there a way to fix it via coding? Thanks   |

 I found the passenger’s door diagram flow, what pin do I need to touch? Thanks |

Looks like that wiring diagram is not the one for your car, but it shouldn’t be to hard to find the wires you need, there on a 2 pin plug (T2fn) so find that and see if it’s plugged in the right way round,

 Here is the pin connector of the non-working passenger's mirror |

Do they work correctly using the door switch? Do both fold and unfold correctly? If so it is not the wiring and I have never heard of mirror wiring being wrong from factory.
The mirrors do not know if they are folded or not, they just move to opposite position when activated. So they will be out of sync if they were not in same position when you installed them.

When I switch the knob one folds and one opens.
Same when I lock and unlock the car.
If I lock it, the driver's side folds and the passenger's side unfolds and vice-versa when I unlock it.
The mirror are not genuine but bought them from AliExpress.
I don't know if it's the wiring or the passenger's door control module.
Very strange

By any chance when you installed them did you operate one before the other was installed? Then they would out of sync. To fix, disconnect one, then use switch to either fold or unfold the one still connected so it matches same position as other one. Then reconnect other one and try again. They should be in sync now.

So for example: Disconnect the passenger's side mirror which is not working good and then with the know fold only the driver's side mirror, then connect the passenger's side and re-fold both mirrors? |

Yes to get them back in sync. So disconnect one of them and fold or unfold the other one to match the disconnected ones position.
Then reconnect and they should be in sync.

I tried it but seems not to work, maybe I'm not doing it correctly. Here is what I did: I activated the folding function for both door control modules, then since when I fold the mirror the driver's side folds and the passenger's side unfolds, I switched the knob to fold them and then disconnected the passenger's side mirror. Then I reconnected again and switched the knob on the normal position and then switched again to folding position, I noticed the same behavior and nothing changed. Can you please tell me what to do step by step based on my situation? Thanks in advance |

I don't think you are understanding.
Your mirrors are out of sync.
Once you have them installed what you are saying is one is folded and one is not. So operating them with the switch just moves each mirror to the opposite position. So they are always out of sync.
Simple disconnect one of the mirrors (NOT THE SWITCH!) and then just operate the one that is still connected to put it in same position (folded or unfolded) as the disconnected one.
Once they are in same position, reconnect the disconnected one.
Now when using the switch they should be in sync.
If not, then you must have either messed up the wiring if you were playing with it, or you did not buy VW factory mirrors and the Chinese ones are not wired correctly.

I have exactly the same problem, I bought a pair of new and original mirrors and I've done everything and I can't get them to work perfectly. Did you manage to find the problem?

"work perfectly"? - maybe your mirrors don't have the required memory module (it's needed to record the initial X/Y coordinate values so the mirror can return to the original position). Mirror dip can work without the memory module - but it can't remember its starting position! You can check if the memory module is installed -like this: The X/Y coordinate values on your car can be different to those shown above - but they can't equal 255 if the memory module is installed

I have already checked and yes the driver door module has no memory active, the passenger door the mirror works fine. The module that I have installed is the 5Q4959593b.
I activated the mirror memory in the coding and it stayed active seeing it in live data but they continue to do the same.

hmm...... not sure that you will ever satisfy your wants with this arrangement - albeit I wish you every success in attempting to do so!! Despite your expectations and IMO of course - there are fundamentally 2 x issues with the set-up on this car (I think):
- The passenger and driver mirror modules operate independently - except in synchronization mode. As I said, without the memory module in the particular mirror module there is absolutely no way that the mirror (regardless of car-side) can store and remember the return position. The coding might be accepted and the function might operate - but it won't (it can't) work properly
- As designed and as programmed in the module firmware for ALL (repeat for emphasis, "ALL") vehicles with a MQB platform build - the mirror dip on reverse function is solely a passenger-side facility. Yes, I understand that the software switches on both passenger and driver side modules are identical and as a result it's therefore possible to code-in mirror dip on the driver-side mirror. But this is NOT how VW designed the function!

problem solved, I simply changed the wires in the plug of the mirror that worked the other way around, pin 9 and 10 and everything was working. It doesn't make sense but what is certain is that everything was working as it should.
