For ages now my drivers side mirror has been stuffed. No adjustment other than folding the actual mirror in. Anyway on the way home had to adjust the mirror manually and it was raining. So i decided to take the door trim of and just see whats going on. Tought it can only be either the motor/switch/wiring. Anyway it turned out to be one of the wires somewhere between the door plug on the body and the window switch (which is a bitch of a loom to fix wires).

My one peice of advice is that if you decide to take the plug out that goes from the door to the body, when you plug it back in make sure you hold the female part on the body side because if you dont it will probably pop out into the sheet metal in the foot well. I found a few extra joints in my arms and wrists getting it back in. What a pain in the ass.

Unplug the mirror that doesnt work. Use a test light or a multimeter and make sure power is geting to every pin on the plug. If one or more of the pins isnt getting power then back probe the actual wires into the switch. If you find a damaged wire somewhere and dont want to open the looms and so on up just by pass the wire by soldering a new one on. Dont unplug the door jam plug, as the topic says its a fkn bitch...

Ask in the MAINTENACE section, you might get some better info.
