Side Mirrors: heated?
For my 2004 CLK320 coupe, are the side mirror heated? How does it work? Are the heat on all the time?
It was raining earlier today and I noticed that they were droplets of water on one of the side mirrors but not the other one. I checked and sure enough, one of the mirrors felt hot to my hand.

Yes, both side mirrors should be heated at the same time. One of my side mirrors is probably defective because it was replaced a few months ago.
I am sure the heat is not on all the time. I am interested in what triggers the heat to come on? Maybe it's the defroster, maybe there is a heat sensor.... ?
