Is it possible to disable light?

looks like the bottom wire is the one that feeds the led so perhaps try cutting it (you can always solder it back again!)

I took that as the output for the mirror lights.
I agree, that switch seems to normally come as a four wire, DC-in and DC-out type switch...
...and is intended for mirror lighting, rather than demisting, as in this case.

There is no input for the switch illumination separately, it'll be fed inside the switch on the PCB.
 
I covered the sensor in electrical PVC tape and success! I no longer have that annoying red light. Thanks @RandomGrinch

If you disable the led, how will other people know where to touch the mirror?

Is this a business property? I have never seen a domestic property with a pin code lock on a bathroom door.

There is a power symbol on the face of the mirror. The only difference now, is that it doesn't illuminate red.

I have a similar challenge with the mirror light switch, however the electrical panel inside looks rather different. I was hoping that there may be suggestions here on how to fix my challenge?

We just moved into a new apartment where the bedroom is ‘open plan’ with the bathroom. In the bathroom, there are 2 large powered bathroom mirror which we love. However, there is a power-on touch switch on the front of the mirror which is very brightly illuminated. This touch switch is illuminated all the time, whether the mirror itself is illuminated or not.

So much so that in the evening, it illuminates our bedroom and we are not at all pleased with so much light during the night.

So we are looking for a way to switch off the illuminated power-on switch. As there is still a symbol at this location on the mirror, we do not actually require the power-on switch to be illuminated in order to locate it on the mirror.

Would anyone have ideas on how to disable the illuminated power-on switch, while still allowing the mirror to be illuminated when desired?

I have opened up the mirror and I have attached pics of what the electrical switch looks like. The mirror was purchased in The Netherlands, but the wiring looks quite universal.

In the above thread, the electrical panel looks simpler. The solution was to cover a sensor with electrical PVC tape. I do not see a logical area on our panel to do this. Many thanks in advance for any suggestions and help.
