Default Electrical Problem - ElectroChromatic Rear View

My 2002 Electrochromatic map lights and shifter spot light don't work. When I press the electrochromatic switch for many seconds...no change. I have turned the interior lights dimmer up and down...still nothing. Both of my visor lights and the rest of the interior lights work fine... Any ideas what the problem with the mirror lights may be?

Thanks in advance!

I had a bad fuse, I forget the number, but it was inside behind the passenger footwell.

Was the fuse only for the mirror, or was it for other things too?

Check the back of the mirror and make sure the connections are good.

I have the same issue with my 2001. Has anyone come up with a remedy?

Mine's the same way, wiggle the wires and see if that changes anything. Thought I had mine fixed but need to try again.
