Rear Visor

Need help! My rear visor/sun shade is not working. Not sure if it is the switch or the motor for the visor. It's up right now and i want it to be down until I know what it is. Any ideas to manual pull it down without damaging it, or any trouble shooting ideas.

Thanks, MB Owners

No not all... it's been strong...that's why I think it might be the switch but i'm no expert. I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem..
