04 CVPI mirror power question

Hi all, I have a low mileage 04 that oddly does not show power coming to the mirror control switch. I tried another switch just in case and also checked the fuses with no luck. I put a test light to the wires coming into the switch and nothing showed hot. Any ideas where else to check for the break in power? Everything else seems to work fine. thank you

Re: 04 CVPI mirror power question

If the fuse is good and there is no power to the switch, check where the wires go into the drivers door. They can flex enough that they will break the wire. We just open the wiring harness and start looking. Unfortunately there is no fast fix unless you get real lucky.
