Auto Side Mirror

I know this is a dumb question, but has anyone had a problem with their automatic lowering side mirrors (when putting the car in reverse the side mirror lowers to show the curb)? Mine just stopped working all of a sudden, as well as the windshild washer sprayers? I've checked fuses and saw nothing wrong? It is a 2005 Acura TL... Thanks!

re-check fuses.
I forgot which one specifically.

I would definitely delete the other thread you started or one of the mods will move it soon. As for your mirror issue, I suggest you run a search...

a lot of other members have run into this issue too. One thing to check is if the mirror switch is set to DS or PS, since this determines which mirror will move while you back up. If it's set to neither then both mirrors will stay in their position while you back up. Last issue is the actual servos in the mirror, which tend to wear down.

Also, there are some additional fuses in the engine bay thay you may want to check, as I am not sure if the windshield washer sprayer fuse is located in that location. Hope this helps. Good Luck!

Door Mirror Does Not Work Properly
(Supersedes 09-047, dated December 1, 2009, to revise the information marked by the black bars and asterisks)
*REVISION SUMMARY
Under REPAIR PROCEDURE, the illustration in step 2 was changed to make the procedure clearer.*
SYMPTOM
Either or both of the door mirrors have one or more of these symptoms:
^After shifting out of R, the power mirror does not return to its normal position.
^When shifting into R, or adjusting the mirror with its adjusting switch, the mirror chatters or pulses.
^The DPMS doesn't recall one or both of the mirror memory positions.
^The DPMS moves the driver's seat 1 inch, then stops.

PROBABLE CAUSE
Faulty door mirror actuator.
CORRECTIVE ACTION
Replace the door mirror actuator(s).
PARTS INFORMATION
Door Mirror Actuator: P/N 76210-STX-H02

Mine works, but it clicks/rattles when adjusting after I put the gear in reverse or back to drive. I know there is a fix but it doesn't bug me enough to worry about it.
