thanks yrs - did replace the fuse and no effect - but was a first for me to find the fuse box and actually find the right one - after driving now for 15 years you would think i would know more - here starts my education.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

when i engage reverse the white reversing lights do not come on and the wing mirror (side mirror)
does not angle downwards - can any of the technically minded of you adv if its a just a fuse or needs to dealer to check itfor loose cabling or the such like - if its a fuse can a non tech cabbage like myself change it - and where do i look.
Yes, backup lights and mirror adjust are the same fuse.
The fuse panel in behind a plastic door in the footwell (where the spoiler switch is). Just pull on the door to remove.
The mirror/backup lights fuse is in the second row from the top (Row B) and it is the 5th fuse from the left. Replace only with a like fuse of 7.5A
Had the same problem repaired just this week. Turned out NOT to be a fuse - reverse lights share fuse with cab top operation and top continued to work. Discovered that a relay needed to be replaced that was under warranty.

Thanks in advance!
had same problem. mine was the relay. and got porsche to fix it. was peanuts job and not costly - guessing yr is a manual as well - i blew the relay (if thats the right phrase) by
turning the engine off whilst car was in reverse gear(and mirror point downwards) then next time i got in the car put the car in forward gear and then started the engine. thus blowing the relay
