Default Drivers Side Mirror will not adjust

I have a 2001 ls430. The drivers side mirror will fold back but not adjust. The passengers side mirror works fine. Do I need to try and take out the switch and clean it? Is there a video showing how to do it?

You can try cleaning the switch first. If the switch works fine for the passenger side and not the drivers side the motors inside the mirror are probably bad.

I just went through this on my 2005 and cleaned the switch but it made no difference so I wound up replacing the mirror assembly. I got lucky and found a new mirror brand new in box for 300.00 but the mirrors retail for around 550.00.

Very common problem on these cars.

Both of my mirrors messed up a week ago. Cleaned the switch and it still did not work. Took it apart and did a better job on cleaning now they work 100% better.
