    Power mirror question

    Hey guys, I know you are probally tired of my questions. If so Im sorry.

    My passenger side power mirror didnt work. I took apart the harness on the door and cleaned it out, and the harness that goes into the mirror, along with the mirrors harness. After I did that, it came back to life, but only powered seft or right. If I try to move it side to side I hear a click on the dirver side one, and the passenger side either moves up or down depending on which side I turn it to.

    My question is what would be causing that clicking? May a wire be touching, or maybe a bad ground. Since it is only the two directions it has me confuesed. Any help will be appreciated.

    Thanks.

    can't really tell why your mirror would be making that sound. these things get old and stop working right after a while to.

      I have an extra passenger side mirror also, it is not the mirror. Thank you though. The drivers side did the same thing before I cleaned it. I am pretty sure it is a wire either touching or not touching some where. I was curious to see others opinions before I tear the car apart.

          Thank you.

          I am thinking it is a wire problem, or the switch.

          Today I unplugged the pass mirror and the when I tried to turn it right or left nothing happened obviously, and when I tried to put it up or down it made the clicking noise from the drivers side mirror. Like some power is going to it or something?
