Why does my car mirror not adjust from top to bottom?

In some cases the mirrors will adjust from top to bottom, but when the driver tries to adjust them sideways, the mirror does not move. This is commonly caused by either an electrical malfunction inside the switch or an issue between the switch and the electrical relay that sends a signal to the motor that operates the mirror.

What happens when you push the mirror switch up?

Under normal conditions, when the driver selects one of the mirrors and pushes the mirror switch up, a set of electrical contacts inside the switch connect power and ground to the up/down mirror motor to move that mirror up. In the down position, the mirror switch reverses the electrical polarity to the motor and the mirror goes down.

My problem was these new DEDC mirrors have different colors compared to the existing wires, and even compared to OEM new-style mirrors.

Why does my electric mirror not adjust side to side?

Mirrors adjust side to side but not up and down. These two symptoms of inconsistent operation of the electric mirror are similar in nature but can have different root causes.
