Lethargic L - R Outside Mirrors!!!
Guys,
I have an issue with both of my outside mirrors. In warm temperatures my mirrors do not work, in cool temperatures my mirrors seem to work just fine. I did not know this was happening until last week when I was backing up. Usually both of my mirrors turn to the ground when go in reverse. So I noticed that they did not move. I started fiddling with the switch to test the functionality of the mirrors, as I was moving the switch I could see either mirror barely moving. The next day first thing in the morning when the vehicle was in the garage I started fiddling with the mirrors, they worked just fine until I drove outside and the car sat under the sun.
Is this an indication of lack of lubrication in the internal parts of the mirrors?. If so, is there a DIY in this forum that I can use to pop them open to spray them with WD40. Apparently the motor inside the mirrors still work but it takes a certain amount of force for me to move the mirrors even with my hands.
