Is your mirror broken? Is the motor no longer working? Here are a few simple steps to replace it! Start by removing the plastic cover on the inside of the door where the mirror adjustment knob is located. Disconnect the connector and unscrew the bolt with a spanner.

At this point, carefully extract the entire mirror, ensuring the connector passes through the gap. To install the new mirror, simply insert it into its housing, re-tighten the bolt, and snap the plastic cover back into place where the mirror position adjuster is located.

How to Reset the Tire Pressure Light on a MG ZS?

On the instrument cluster of the MG ZS, the tire pressure light that appears can be reset by inflating the tires to the correct pressure: this value will be indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tires have been properly inflated, you can turn on the instrument cluster and navigate through the menu until you find the option that indicates tire pressure: if this screen shows the new values, the light will turn off; otherwise, you will need to drive for a few miles so that the sensors can read the new values and turn off the light afterward.
