Could be quite a few things.But I would start with testing the rocker switch that switches from left to right mirrors,then work your way to the joystick checking for power.This will require removal of the center console,that's not too hard,and seems like the easiest place to start.My 86 had the same problem with both mirrors being intermitent,but that was a poor contact on my fuse holder.Good luck.

I had the same problem, but it was the motor in the mirror. One of the gears was froze up. I removed the glass and manually unfroze the gear and oiled it with WD40 and it worked fine afterward.
