Question Pass side mirror won't turn down

Haven't been on here in years....my 02 TL S....when I put the car in reverse the pass mirror won't turn down. I just noticed this yesterday.....car just has 62k on it....So if anyone can help I'd appreciate it.....also IF it might be in the center console I won't work on it....IF there may be a relay on the trans I may work on it.....really don't want to tear into the console......Thanks bhanse

not sure what you're asking about the console - but 9 times out of 10 your mirror switch is stuck in the right or left position (not middle where it has to be for the side mirror to tilt down)

The mirror switch has to be in the middle position for it to work. Make sure its in the middle and try it.
