ahhhhh.

Run me through the LS mirror in horizontal position. Start at the switch and take it to the mirror.

Then do the same for the mirror in the vertical position.

Actually I am good to go. Took it to the dealer yesterday for a coolant leak and asked them to look at the mirrors. They sprayed an electrical spray in the swivel of the mirror head, worked the mirror assembly up and down and wha-la they are working. Something to keep in mind and do once in a while.

Thanks for all of your help
