Folding Door Miirors

[NJP10]

Hi All, 

Ive noticed recently that when I start the car the drivers side door mirror folds but the passenger side remains folded. Only when I manually turn the turn mirror knob to fold and then unfold then both unfold together. When you remotely arm the car both mirrors fold no problem. Any idea’s??

First thought was that with wear and tear the passenger mirror wants more power to function and with vehicle not running it can’t get enough current to unfold but once vehicle is started the extra power supplied by the alternator allows it to work. Unfortunately failing power fold mirrors is common across all cars

Hi thanks for your reply, the tragic thing is not so long ago I’ve had the battery replaced supplied from main dealer as well!!

Does your convenience window opening work for the passenger window from your key incase your passenger door module is not waking up until the drivers door is opened

Yes that fully opens and closes everything including the sunroof

It'll need a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up
