I have a bathroom cabinet with an LED mirror door and demister. The mirror is double sided. The demister has stopped working, but I have no idea how to open up the mirror. Also I have no idea how it gets its power as the only connection to the cabinet is 3x DTC hinges (I’m assuming it transfers power through them?). on the original paperwork it’s called a Europa 1 Cabinet 70x60cm
I’m guessing that if I can get inside the mirror I’ll be able to replace the demister pad, any advice is welcome.

It looks as if there are two mirrors.

The inside mirror appears to be affixed with a silicone "bead", which you may need to cut through.

Probably.
See if you can measure (Extra Low) Voltage across any pair of hinges.

Perhaps you should first determine (from the Company which made this product) if any such Spare Part is available.!

The rust on the lower hinge indicates that this mirror door is not new.

The top hinge in the picture looks like it has a plastic/rubber insulator, which the next hinge down doesn't have. If you only have one hinge with that insulator then I'd bet money that will be one pole of the circuit.
