I have no clue whats wrong with my side mirrors, the drivers side will tilt up, down and out but not in.... the passanger side will tilt up, down but not out.:confused: Now with winter approching and My husband who's taller then me somtimes drives my car I have to get out and move my passanger side mirror everytime I get in after him. I'm fed up, and sense I can't tell him he can't drive the car he paid for I'm asking you guys to tell me what I could do to fix this problem, PLEASE help....

The same motor runs the mirror down and up...as well as side to side.

What does it do when you run it the opposite way? Does the motor run? Does the mirror move? Are they clipped into place?

I can move my drivers side anyway but in and pasanger any way but out.... so basicly both mirrors won't move to the right. I thought the motor was the same too so why they won't move to the right is crazy!

Could be your switch if the same dirctional control isn't working...

Could be contacts dirty inside, or something bad...

I'll let you pull it apart I don't know what i'm doing and I know what pleasure you gain from pulling apart a SHO and cleaning things that arn't seen by the ***** eye!

That switch is used in many a Ford. You probably can take the one you have and clean it to get it working again. Squirt it with WD and work it good.
