Went out to my car this morning turned the ignition on and only one of the mirrors folded out. Tried to turn off / on again a few times to no avail. Tried using manual switch to no avail.

Got to work and the other mirror will now not fold in. I'm presuming a fuse has blown. The mirrors have been squeeking a lot lately and I'm wondering whether, with the recent cold spell, ice / water has got in there and either seized it or caused a short curcuit which has now blown the fuse.

Anybody else had this problem?

Cheers

Shaun

Cheers rageuk. Strangely, after not working all day yesterday, I came out this morning and they're working again!

Could be an intermittent fault with the motor I suppose.

My windows do this. Take it to the dealer and they will replace under warranty without issue :)

Yeah, got the same problem on mine. Right mirror only folds part way in sometimes. Other times works just fine if not a little slower than the other one! Will be getting the dealer to sort it.
