OB99W Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 I'm assuming that you're referring to the outside mirrors. I'm also assuming that you don't have the owner's manual, since the the fuse info is in that. Fuse #3 (counting from the upper left) in the under-dash panel is a 20A that protects the "remote controlled rear view mirrors", as well as the cigarette lighter socket. However, if you don't have the manual, perhaps you're not aware of the control operation. First, the mirrors only operate when the ignition is "ON" or in "ACC" position. If the mirrors are the heated type, you have to turn the knob to the "L" or "R" position before the "joystick" works; the center postion is inactive/"neutral". (The non-heated type has a switch below the knob that similarly has to be flipped left or right.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OB99W Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 hey thanks a million! i just noticed that my cig lighter doesent work either! ill give it a try.You're welcome. It's certainly possible that someone overloaded/shorted the lighter socket and blew the fuse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subeast-EA81 Posted June 11, 2008 Author Share Posted June 11, 2008 Found it, put a fuse in and it blew, so tracked it down to the cigar lighter up forward, anyone have one that they would like to donate? took it out of the circut, everything works fine!

Cougar Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Inspect the inside of the socket and look for any trouble. You may be able to fix it yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
