Re: Folding mirrors has stopped working
Mine quite often don't move when I turn the swich to unfold them. Even moving the switch back and forth several times doesnt seem to work. However as soon as I start moving ( say over 5-10mph) they always unfold themselves so I've just lived with it.
Are you saying that your don't unfold even when the car is moving ?

Re: Folding mirrors has stopped working
The Mirror Folding Motors are not individually fused. Its all controlled in the Door Controllers for each door and the fuses are common. As one is failing to retract its not the door switch as its a one contact switch in the rotary switch unit for both sides. Same if its the Tilt/Turn function. There are two separate motors for "folding" and "tilt/turn" functions.
Check fuses SC12 - 10 amps (red) and SC23 - 30 amps in the side dash fusebox. But I doubt you will find that they have blown.
If they are OK, then a single folding mirror or tilt/turn of mirror suggests two things.....
1a) The Right Folding Mirror motor has failed.
or
1b) The Right "tilt/turn" motor has failed if that function only has stopped working.
2) The Right Door's Door Controller output has failed for the "fold" in/out command signal.
