Hello. I have come in to possession of a low mileage (10k) 2007 Vantage V8.
i do not have any previous experience with AM’s.
Both side mirrors are unresponsive to the power mirror adjustment controls on the drivers door panel.
Additionally the actual mirror arms have play in them when extended, and will slide inward a little due to air resistance when driving.
Can I please get some guidance on trouble shooting these issues?
Do the power mirrors have a fuse that could be the culprit?
I assume that if I solve the first problem of the power mirrors not working, that the second issue will not be an issue because the mirrors can be adjusted to compensate for the arms coming back slightly due to air resistance, or is this an issue that also needs addressed?

While I am asking, is extending and retracting of the mirror arms a manual process or by chance are they a power feature as well (that are also not functioning on my car)?

Thanks in advance for any assistance and guidance.

 

Have you tried manually moving the mirrors? Meaning the assembly and make sure the "click" into a clocked position either out or inwards.

 

Yes I have.
The issue with that is that I manually adjust the mirror panes before I go for a drive, but then the play in the mirror arms allows the mirror arms to move back a little when driving due to wind resistance, and then the mirrors are out of adjustment and useless while driving.

 

Not sure this information will help but the mirrors are from Volvo. My wife has a 2004 S60 and they are they exactly the same.
