Default Sluggish Mirror Problem

My right side mirror dosn't respond well moving in the down position and sometimes dosn't work at all. Any suggestions? Thanks

Do you hear the motor moving and the mirror just doesn't? If so something might be binding.
You can pry the mirror off the motor to check it out. Just use the motor to turn it out and stick you hand behind it and pull it out. Sometimes they can get tough to snap back on, but it can be done with patience.

Thanks, I will try. It does free up at times though, and I am trying to "exercise" it a bit.
