Another Broken Sideview Mirror Switch

275355 is for a 599.

 

They have it labeled incorrectly, but this is it:

It is the same size and fitment, I have had customers order 458 switches for 599s. May look a tad different on the icons but works fine.

 

For the 612, the F8 or 488 switch with the mirror folding at the bottom works and is readily available.

 

And there is an easy add on service you could offer. Refinish the new switches and give them the correct icons.

 

We have the mirror decals in stock for both models.

 

I had to replace mine and discovered that the complete lighting control and mirror control unit is the same as used on some Fiat and Maserati cars. I recall some earlier threads on this subject here.

I have a problem with my switch! Can u help out ?

 

Can you provide a little more information regarding the problem? What I found with the 599’s switch as you can see from my photos was a fracture portion of the plastic that allowed the rotating knob to over-rotate and failed to hold the contacts in place when manipulated. It was replaced instead of repaired for several reasons including the ready availability of replacement parts. There are substitutes that used to be available but I could not find them in the U.S., or shipped to the U.S. You may have better access to allow just the replacement of the knob. The replacement of the assembly was very quick once that decision was made.

 

It’s lose, I can use it but not all directions
Breakable any time

I’d say you have the same problem as mine. I could carefully get it to function intermittently in some directions and some situations. It would however rotate completely around beyond the stops for switching left to right. I suggest pulling the assembly and seeing what is going on with the housing physically. You may be able to glue / epoxy the housing back in place. You can also just replace the mirror control *if* you can find the comparable part in stock, which I could not. Otherwise, the only choice is replacement. It is an easy DIY job to replace and I don’t recall the genuine Ferrari part being very expensive.

 

Yes ! Exactly the same problem.

will try to fix it, the new part comes a set with the lights switch. Expensive trying to figure out or find the mirror switch only which I didn’t get lucky yet.

Hey pj, did you have any luck with the 458 part? I'm having the same issue with my car.
