It's been hashed out on a zillion forums, so I'll skip all the bulk of that.
I was curious if Bosch would go to the trouble of making all the components of both the 'regular' power mirrors and the folding mirror switch different. Obviously the buttons aren't there if you don't have the folding!
But - I took my (non folding) switch apart, and low and behold... the PCB is the same, the membrane push button is there... I'm just not dead sure if ALL the components are on the board or not, since I have nothing to compare to.
I've got my new folding mirrors, and it'd be nice if they worked without having to snip the harness and hard wire them to a switch (not that it's a big deal, but it's kind of ghetto!).
Here's all the pics I took. IF someone has an 07-14 with the power folding and is willing to take a peek inside (honestly it's really easy!), get some similar pics for comparison. I reverse engineered a few sections, and it looks like there's some pads for switching transistors that aren't there. But - not dead sure.
Just for the hell of it, I'm going to hook up the Tech2 and try enabling the function. Hopefully I don't brick my windows.
