Mirrors in reverse flaky - switch tipped to right

I wasn't sure how to pose the question. IT seems intermittently the power mirrors dont respond. If I move the position lever they eventually move. But also in reverse, I notice they dont dip down, even when I have the selector switch moved to the side.

Is there any maintenance or something to check for the mirrors?
Just sort of an annoyance.

My switch was acting up the same way. I removed the switch and disassembled. I cleaned the contacts, reassembled it and reinstalled it. It only works marginally better now. I fear the motor on the left mirror has taken a dump. The right side works like a champ. The drivers side mirror only moves left and right. Not up and down...
