Default Drivers side mirror

I accidently puts this is the IS forum.

2004 LS430 and I have have read the other threads concerning the mirror.

Mine will move up, down, to the left. It will not move towards the car to use for driving.

Can you move it manually? By hand?

You can try cleaning the switch contacts first to see if that is the issue. If you clean the switch and the symptoms remain you may need to rebuild or replace the mirror assembly because the motors inside are failing.

I just went through this on my 2005. My driver mirror would function perfectly except for the up and down. I cleaned the switch and nothing changed. I then ordered a new mirror and once it was installed everything worked perfectly again.

Yes, order the new mirror. Installation is extremely easy.

I can move manually but when I try to move to the right it starts bumping.
