Right Side Mirror won't Tilt when in Reverse

hmm..my right side mirror won't tilt anymore when I shift to reverse.....any DIY fix for it, or just bring it to the dealer? I am so not used to the mirror not tilting down when parking.....it's such a simple but awesome feature....

are you sure your button is in the right spot? Try checking the part where you set which mirrors to choose. i think if its in middle it tilts down if its at the right it doesnt. I forgot. May be vice versa

Ah, ok. My doesn't tilt cuz I leave it to left or right all the time. Very helpful when backing up to park at the mall to see the lines.

OH! that might be the reason...I never knew about this...yes..I was adjusting my left side mirror a few days ago, and that's when the tiliting down feature stopped working...let me give it a try..thanks for the suggestion!

The small button on the door used to adjust the mirrors MUST be in the center or "neutral" position for the the right mirror to move down when gear shift is placed in reverse
