Passenger Side mirror

meruyailir · 03-05-2006, 08:34 AM

There's this feature that when we do reverse and the position of the side mirror adjust switch is to the driver's, the passenger side mirror will automatically moves down to let us see the side road.

Somehow it happened a few times that when I started up the car, the position of the passenger side mirror is not where it was (not up enough). Not sure how it happened and whether it has something to do with the automatic side mirror adjustment on REVERSE when I parked the car earlier.

Has anyone encountered this? I don't recall having this issue when I put the side mirror switch to the passenger side (to disable the automatic adjustment on reverse).

This happened to me once when I first got my car. Try manually folding the mirrors in then out and/or adjusting the right sided mirror "electro-manually" up and down a few times, and see if it still does it.

Might your automatic seat/mirror settings have been changed and set so that the new incorrect mirror position, is now the saved position?

Yep. It turned out that I didn't realize that the electric seat memory also memorizes the side mirror position.

Thanks!
