Passenger side mirror stuck and clicking when adjusting

anyone have experience with a passenger side either unable to adjust or click when adjusting? I was wondering if you can take it out to lubricate the gears or might have to replace motor?

No experience with lack of adjustment here. You can use a panel removal tool to snap off the trim piece with the tweeter at the bottom of the A-pillar. That will give you access to the mirror mount screws.

Mine does this sometimes if I use the auto-dip feature but I've found that it often fixes itself if I just cycle it or turn it off and reset it carefully by hand.
