Hi all,
My E250 2014 Passenger side ORVM puddle light sometimes work and sometimes it doesn’t. Sometimes when it doesn’t work I give the ORVM some taps and it works.
What could be the problem? If it’s the bulb can someone share the part number.

Dont use the original 5 watts version of the bulb, use 3.4 watts from Honda. If door open too long and often, the bulb reflector housing will be burnt.




Buy and use this one : https://www.hondapartsnow.com/genuin...8-ga7-701.html


See how much cooler is the 3.4 watts version

Oops, you are speaking of MIRROR and not the door. Dang. Sorry.
But this is good info for the door and if the mirror also uses 5 watts incand bulb, you swap it for 3.4watts one.

It is the same 5 watts as the door puddle light. Even on mine, as per EPC. Item #35

If I do same teardown like below, I guarantee some of the plastic will crack , my fingers are not good with fragile plastic locking tabs
