: The most obvious sign is that your side mirrors remain icy or fogged up even when the rear defrost/heated mirror button is pressed.

: Although less common for a single "open" code, a shared fuse for the door module could be at fault if multiple door functions are failing. Diagnostic and Repair Steps

If the airbag light is on, the may be degraded.

This is the most common fix.

: This unique numerical string specifically registers a fault within the exterior heated glass matrix assembly.

: Reads as OL (Open Loop) or infinitely high resistance, confirming a dead heating grid. Replace the glass. 3. Verify Voltage Delivery

Disabling it could cause the passenger airbag to:

If your meter reads OL (Open Loop) or infinite resistance, the heating element inside the glass is broken. The fix is to purchase and snap in a new replacement mirror glass. 3. Check for Voltage Supply

If the airbag light is on and you regularly carry a front passenger, until the system is repaired. In a crash, the passenger airbag may not deploy even for an adult.

Because this specific fault code does not illuminate the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) or Check Engine light on your dashboard, it is usually only uncovered during a routine vehicle diagnostic sweep using specialized software like FORScan . Breaking Down the DTC Syntax

Which specific module () reported the code?

: In Ford’s extended OBD-II sub-code system, the ":60" suffix directly translates to "Circuit Open" or an electrical interruption. It means power is leaving the module but isn't completing its path back to the ground.

[Door Control Module] ---> [Door Hinge Wiring] ---> [Glass Terminals] ---> [Heating Element Grid] ▲ ▲ ▲ (Fraying/Snaps) (Corrosion/Loosening) (Burned Traces)

Set your multimeter to DC volts. With the engine running and the rear defroster (which usually activates the mirrors) turned on, check for battery voltage at the mirror's electrical connector.
