Passengers side folding mirror only folds out
I'm having some troubles with the folding mirror on the passengers side, it doesn't fold in on itself but it does fold out on itself.
I gave it a quick spray of WD-40, but that doesn't seem to have changed much.
The drivers side mirror moves a little after I've released the button but the passengers side mirror stops immediately.
I've tried calibrating the mirrors by holding the in and out button for a few seconds, if they allow for any calibration
It looks to me like there are two sensors in the mirror's motor, but only one of them is working, as the mirror does fold back out and stops in time.
Can somebody confirm the existance of the sensors?

I wasn't aware of the existance of such a website! Thanks!
EDIT:
I'll be trying to fix the motor before trying to replace the whole side mirrors frame
