Wing mirror adjustment.

Both wing mirrors won't adjust up, they will both do left/right/down..... any ideas?

Give the glass a nudge manually.

Tried that, still the same. I guess it must be the contacts inside the switch as they are both doing it.

They don’t tilt up that far? They tilt down plenty but upwards not that much. Maybe they’re already at max upward tilt?

When I adjust them down, all the way with the switch neither will move back up at all.

Try a new switch, you've obviously got a bad contact somewhere for going UP. If that doesn't do the trick then you might have to cable trace as the connection will be broken somewhere...

I replaced the switch when mine did exactly this. They Work perfectly now.

Is that door card off to replace?

No mate, just pop the switch and surround out from the door card and the switch simply unplugs.

I did manage to get my original switch working again, after spraying some contact cleaner on it, but it soon died after a week. I ended up getting a replacement switch from ebay for about £35.
