Mirror Control Switch - Genuine Saab 12782901

Product Information

A door mirror switch is the control button or joystick, usually located on the driver’s door panel, that allows adjustment of the side mirrors. It sends electrical signals to the mirror motors to move the glass up, down, left, or right. Some switches also control power-folding mirrors or heating functions. Over time, wear on the switch contacts, wiring, or internal components can lead to malfunctions.

• Unresponsive mirror adjustment – mirrors don’t move when the switch is operated.
• Intermittent or limited function – mirrors only move in some directions or require repeated attempts.
• Loose or damaged switch – physical play, sticking, or visible wear that prevents proper operation.

About Genuine Saab

The original parts used by Saab to build your car are available as replacement parts under the “Genuine Saab” brand. Manufactured under the direction of Saab, expect excellent quality and a premium price since these parts are exclusively available through the Saab Dealership network.

You may not realize this, but the parts that make up your Saab are not necessarily manufactured by Saab. No cause for concern, as Saab designs the part, hires a manufacturer, and ensures its quality to you. In fact, many of these manufacturers have been making parts for Saab for decades. In our industry these manufacturers are called OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and these are often brands you recognize, including Lemforder, ZF, Sachs, Bosch, Valeo, Zimmermann, Siemens VDO, Corteco, and more. Don’t be surprised to open that Genuine Saab parts box and find an OEM branded part inside, simply with the addition of a Saab logo.

Be sure to keep an eye out for OE tags on our product pages to quickly identify parts coming direct from OE manufacturers. That extra bit of insight could save you some serious money while shopping! Refer to our OE Academy for further information regarding the OE/OEM tags throughout the site.
