Wing mirror in reverse not working
« on: 17 April 2023, 14:36 »
My drivers side wing mirror no longer moves when I engage reverse gear. The passenger side works perfectly. I have checked that the knob is on "R" when doing so but still nothing. Any ideas?

As above, only the near side mirror dips.

I could have sworn the driver side mirror dipped too. Not sure why I thought that.
