hey fellas,
recently got my car back from the shop and now the passenger side mirror motor isn't working.
could it be a fuse? if so, where is it located?

could be that the plug for the mirror is not plugged in, i would check that first.

^As above.

Take off your door trim. Easy to spot.

Remove door handle holder thingy (2 screws)
Remove plastis surround for door handle (1 screw)

I start in the bottom left hand corner of the door. Slide your fingers under the door trim. First buckle will unclip, then just work your way around til they all are popped off.

Mirror wiring should be clipped into the door from memory. If its not, its unplugged and you have to find it hanging down inside the door off the mirror. To do so, pull back the clear plastic (its gluey and icky as **** - AVOID AT ALL COSTS) and look through the top left holes where the mirror mounts. You'll see the mirror power cables dangling. Reach in and plug back into door power supply.

Now go test the mirror again and see it works. If it does, put the door trim back on by simply pushing the clips into the holes they came from (easy to do it all lines up).
