Electric door mirrors

[Reggie]

Hi everyone glad to be on the site seems some good info on it. Ive just purchased a K reg Corrado and have an intermittent fault with the mirrors anybody any ideas? The motors will drive with power to them from the battery but only sometimes using the switch. Think it could be an earth problem or a problem with the switch. Any help greatfully appreciated thanks.

sounds like a switch to me, try changing that then look at the wiring and earths

Switch, terminal, faulty section of wire or an earth connection

id try a new switch first, cant be that expensive really, check your earths at the same time

Thanks to you all for your help. It was the switch just took it apart and cleaned the contacts and working as good as new now so CHEERS

I've had the same prob, it turned out to be the switch as well...

Most of the time these switches can be broken down and rebuilt without having to replace them. I know parts over here are becoming a little rare.
