Power Locks,Mirrors help Me Please

Post by BlueVibe »

My remote pad for the locks don't work. Also the power mirrors work but the switch won't allow the mirrors to go up. I was just wondering if anyone had been having this problem.

The only thing I can think of is a fuse. I've seen many cars that have the mirrors and door locks on the same fuse. Try that.

Do both remotes not work? If it's only one, then maybe the battery is defunct. If it's both, they may not have been properly programmed at the factory (or dealer) and just need to be reprogrammed.As to the mirrors, if it's just the up part of the switch not working, and both mirrors won't go up, switch might be defective.But, are you sure the L/R switch is on L or R, and not in the middle? When in the middle, it acts as an OFF switch and prevents you from accidentally moving the mirrors.

The remotes and the inside buttons dont work either. When switching between the two mirrors left, right, and down work but no up. I made an appointment to take it in

Question.Can you only not unlock the doors inside with the button?If they'll lock, but not unlock, that means at some point the remotes work, and the doors will locked. You cannot use the interior buttons to unlock the door if it has been locked with the remote. It must be first unlocked with the remote to enable the interior buttons.If it won't lock or unlock, I'd venture to say it's a fuse...
