Default '91 Accord- power mirror problems?

Hey all- My power mirrors are FUNKY. When I slide the switch to either side like I am going to adjust the mirror, that mirror just moves all the way to one side and the mirror/motor keep clicking like they want to keep going that way.

Any ideas? I would really like to fix my mirrors and get them working right.

Sounds like a bad switch.

The mirror could be maxed out (extreme to 1 side or another)....try finding a 'neutral' position forthe actual mirror then try using the switch.

Chiovnidca)Thanks- best source for switch?

VRDrvr)Thanks too, but I think you misunderstood the problem. When I slide the mirror selection switch to either mirror, the mirror starts moving before I even hit the mirror adjustmwent switch, then the adjustment switch has no effect whatsoever. Sorry, I should have made that clearer.

Question for all- what are the chances it will help if I just get a set of the folding mirrors form evilBay? They are not horrendously expensive and a really neat idea to boot...

Well based off of the clarification I would say the switch as well

a cheaper alternative to OEM parts, or look for someone parting out their accord .
