The Question: is there a way to disable/enable side mirrors from aming down when car is in reverse?

The Story: when i came out of a gasstation, my gf was button mashing everythng in the car like its mario brothers or something, trying to find something... i dono what..

The problem: mirrors no longer angle down when car is in reverse.

To angle the mirrors down in reverse, make sure the mirror selection switch is either left or right. Setting it in the middle disables this feature. Also, if your car is old, the contacts for this switch may be slightly corroded. You can jiggle the switch the make your mirrors tilt down, or you follow the cleaning guide here - https://www.clublexus.com/forums/ls4...r-adjujst.html
