Honda Jazz Wing Mirror: Specs, Fitment & Common Faults

On the Jazz, a small thermal fuse inside the mirror mechanism itself commonly fails and costs just a few pounds to replace.

Honda Jazz Wing Mirror: OEM Part Number

Accuracy note: genuinely worth knowing: power-folding Jazz mirrors have a small motor built into the mirror base that can fail independently of the glass or housing — if only the folding function has stopped working, the motor alone may be repairable or replaceable without buying a complete new mirror assembly.

A Genuinely Money-Saving, Real Fix Worth Trying First — Honda Jazz Wing Mirror

If a folding mirror has stopped working, this is genuinely worth knowing before ordering an expensive replacement: inside the mirror mechanism itself is a small thermal fuse, sometimes called a polyswitch, genuinely separate from the main fuses in the vehicle's fuse box. This specific fuse commonly fails and can often be sourced cheaply — around £3-4 for a pack of ten.

A genuinely useful diagnostic distinction worth knowing: pressing the fold button and listening tells you a lot — a buzzing sound with no actual movement typically points toward worn plastic gears inside the mirror assembly, while complete silence points toward an electrical fault such as the thermal fuse.

It's also worth knowing about a genuinely pragmatic workaround: some owners have had a garage simply disconnect the folding motor entirely, reverting the mirrors to fully manual operation.

Honda Jazz Wing Mirror: More Electronics Hiding Inside Than Most People Realise

The Honda Jazz's wing mirrors bundle a surprising amount of hardware behind that glass — folding motors, heating elements, indicator lights, sometimes blind-spot sensors — meaning a single vague complaint like "the mirror's not working" could describe several distinct faults.

Before you buy: mirror specification varies significantly by trim — heated, power-folding, indicator-integrated and blind-spot-sensor versions are not interchangeable. Always confirm against your VIN before ordering.

Honda Jazz Wing Mirror: Driver's Side or Passenger Side? Sorting Out the Terminology

Side confusion is one of the most common ordering errors with Honda Jazz wing mirrors, since UK sellers and catalogues don't always describe left and right the same way. Here's how it breaks down on a right-hand-drive UK car:

Driver's side = right-hand (RH) = offside (OS) — the side closest to the centre of the road.
Passenger side = left-hand (LH) = nearside (NS) — the side closest to the kerb.

Part listings may use any of these terms interchangeably — "RH mirror," "offside mirror," and "driver's side mirror" all refer to the same physical part on a UK-spec Jazz. Double-check which convention your supplier is using before ordering, since a mix-up here is one of the most common reasons the wrong mirror turns up.

Honda Jazz Wing Mirror: What It Does

Beyond the obvious job of rear visibility, modern wing mirrors on higher trims of the Jazz often integrate turn signal repeaters, puddle lights, heating elements to clear condensation, and power-fold motors for tight parking spaces. Higher-spec versions may also house blind-spot monitoring sensors, making them considerably more expensive to replace than a basic mirror.

Honda Jazz Wing Mirror: Generations, Derivatives, Colour & Mirror Adjustment

Accuracy note: mirror covers colour-match the body — see notes below. Manual vs. electric adjustment and heated glass are general patterns by trim and era, not a substitute for confirming your exact derivative via VIN, since even within one generation the base specification can differ from what's typical for that era. This applies equally to the driver's side and passenger side mirror, which always match in adjustment type and heating.

All generations	Platinum White Pearl, Milano Red, Modern Steel, Lunar Silver; electric adjustment is standard on most trims from this generation, with heated glass increasingly common too — though the most basic specification may still be manual; confirm your exact trim
Naming note	Milano Red (code R-81) and Rally Red (code R-513) are distinct paint codes despite looking similar and being used across related Honda models — confirm the exact code before ordering a replacement bumper, since they aren't interchangeable
