Passenger side mirror not working properly!
The passenger side mirror on my 1999 E430 is not quite working up to snuff. Wife had walked into it with some groceries, and popped the glass plate off of the motor. I popped it back on and everything seemed to take. The mirror works with the joystick no problem. And all memories for the seat settings also change the pitch of the mirror. However when placing the trans in reverse, the mirror will not adjust downward like it had. Now if I shift the car in reverse, and push the right hand mirror selector at the joystick, it will adjust down. Once you shift the vehicle out of reverse, it still stays down though. Now If I select the left hand mirror at the joystick, it will return to the memory setting. That's all the trouble shooting I could do. Something to reset???? Thought someone here might have some insight. If not, off to a dealer in a couple of weeks, and I get to see how good the aftermarket warranty is from Warrantygold, that was bought a few months ago. Thanks in advance..!

When I bought my 2001 CLK430 Cab mine didn't work either - under any circumstances. The dealer said someone had forgotten to reprogram them after a previous repair. Make sure you have the passenger mirror selector pushed down for this feature to operate. Maybe the bump knocked the programming off.
