Flaky Side Mirror

Flaky Side Mirror
My driver’s side mirror control is being flaky. It works to control it from left to right but not up and down. Sometimes it will start working again on its own. Usually, if I want to adjust the mirror up and down, I have to open the window and do it manually. The control works fine for the passenger side mirror. I’m thinking of trying to spray some contact cleaner in the part of the control that switches from left to right and/or trying to spray some lube (silicone or something) down behind the glass on the actual mirror. Has anybody else experienced this? What did you do to fix it? Thanks in advance.

I have noticed at times that my 94 EX will only move laterally, if I adjust the up/down to another position. I usually can track to desired postion w/ a little extra effort.
A new power window is relatively inexpensive, although matching color may be more expensive. Some use black and leave it unpainted.
good luck

No, I don't hear the motor when aiming up and down.

I'm thinking that since the right side mirror works with no problem with the same switch, that the switch is okay.

Okay, I think I'll take the door apart and see if anything looks awry. I'll try some contact cleaner on the switch and see if that helps.
