Re: Power side-mirror problem

Does this sound like a problem at the switch (joystick type of switch on driver side door) or the mirror.

Any help would be appreciated, it is very annoying.

Hi Scott,

This is just a "guess", but I would think that it is probably something wrong in the switch (causing "stray" current to get to the mirror).

I would test this theory by disconnecting the joystick connector for a day or two, once you have the mirrors where you want them. Then plug it back in and see what happens.

There is a picture of the bottom of the switch here.

Take Care,
