If the wiper fluid doesn't spray and auto-dim on the rear-view mirror also doesn't work(no green light on the mirror), then I believe it's fuse #20. A TSB addresses the problem by recommending replacement of the 7.5 amp fuse with a 10 amp fuse.

if it was a fuse, then how would he be able to move the mirror in certain directions and not others. Does the other mirror work properly. If not then my guess would be the switch. If the other mirror does wotk properly, then i would be guessing that the actuator for the mirror is bad.

Might as well check the fuse first, BTW, since it's cheaper and easier than buying a mirror switch or actuator.

I think the TSBs were renumbered or it was superseded later, as I can't find it on AZ's October 2005 TSB lists.
However, it sounds like you have a bad door lock actuator since the door locks are a separate issue.

Others had the problem with reduced operation of the mirrors as well as no wiper sprayer or auto-dim, and it was fuse #20, so it's the way the TL's minor controls were engineered.

good, glad a suggestion worked for you. I need to look at the electrical drawings for this damn car more to find out how things are wired up. Hope you stay around to build up your post numbers.

The TSB is b05-033, which can be viewed at: Acura[world.com]/tsb/3gTL/b05-033.pdf <[remove the brackets for the http address-- AZ doesn't like competing sites].
