Motorized side mirrors

I just got my 04 Acura TL a few days ago and finally had the chance to really drive it last night. I realized that the passenger side mirror does not tilt down when I put it in reverse but the driver side does. Is there somethign wrong, or a setting that needs to be changed?

I'm almost certin that they both worked when I test drove the TL.

Thanks

Welcome and congrats!

All you have to do is set the side-view mirror selector switch to either "L" or "R", and the selected mirror will tilt down when you reverse.

You have to choose between one or the other.

KPT=KP Technologies. They have a module that enables both mirrors to tilt down when the car is in reverse.
