I took off the interior 'triangle' trim and removed/replaced the cable.
Leading evidence: 'Replace cable' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Check connection/o ring first, if' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.

Cheapest way is probably to find complete used mirror from ebay, and then take neccesary parts out.

I found a clean used side view mirror on eBay for $33 delivered.

Suggestion · Original poster
I�ll check the connection/O ring first, if that doesn�t work I�ll verify the new side view mirror motor works and if need be swap it out.

Suggestion
Before replacing the mirror or it's motor, I would recommend to check the plug connectiing the mirror to the harness.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Outcome without a verified action link
The new motor worked identically as the original motor did, up and down it worked, inward and outward it did not.
Hi gang,
Vehicle is a 2000 Carrera Cab.
I noticed my passenger side mirror does not move inward or outward using the switch on the driver door. It does, however, move up and down. The Driver mirror does work normally in all four directions, eliminating the likely hood of a bad mirror switch.
Any suggestions how repair/replace this suspected bad motor? I will be replacing the mirror switch with a spare (once I get it) but I suspect I�ve got a bad mirror motor.
Thanks

Before replacing the mirror or it's motor, I would recommend to check the plug connectiing the mirror to the harness. Despite the thin O-Ring, some oxydation may be responsible for this issue. BTW, no need to remove the door pannel to do this.
Thanks for the suggestions guys . . . I found a clean used side view mirror on eBay for $33 delivered.
I�ll check the connection/O ring first, if that doesn�t work I�ll verify the new side view mirror motor works and if need be swap it out.
I finally got to addressing my non functioning side view mirror. I removed the mirror glass, then removed the three screws holding the adjustment motor in and replaced it with an extra motor I had. The new motor worked identically as the original motor did, up and down it worked, inward and outward it did not.
I then removed the inside cover plate of the side view mirror, reseated the pigtail. . . and voil�! It worked.
The pigtail was loose. Thanks everyone for your suggestions, JB001 you were spot on.
I still have a good spare passenger side view mirror just in case.
Hi, I just encountered this problem myself - passenger side mirror not moving at all.
I took off the interior 'triangle' trim and removed/replaced the cable. Then I got the mirror to work left/right, but not up/down. Do my pins look correct? The 3 on the upper right section seem a little 'recessed' into the socket.
If I need to replace either the male or female wiring, does anybody have the part numbers? How do you remove the mirror?
Thank you.
