could try cleaning the contacts where the heated mirror wires attach to the mirror and if you have a multimeter it might be worth checking the voltage on the wires while your there
if there is a voltage present ( should be 12 volt ) and the contacts are clean the obvious is the heater element is duff
Shut off device..... Quite a common problem... One of the members on here SYX fixes them for £6... I've put the link below... Go to the last page and ask him where to send it...
You'll need to take the mirror cover off (Pretty Easy Peasy) and then it's simply disconnect the the two connectors... If you look at page 1 of that thread, it shows you what the SOD "Shut off Device" looks like.
I had this problem, one of the connections had come off the back of the mirror.
Pop the mirror off and have a look. If not then I new mirror is in order.
You could also test if it's the mirror by popping off the other one and connecting it up.
i got a cheap one off ebay, the terminals are a different size to OEM, the quailty is worse than OEM, they dont heat up as well as OEM
