You should not expect the motor to turn just because you are pushing on the glass. If you push hard enough on one side of the glass it will move a click at a time allowing you to aim it crudely by hand. ...also when i select r on the mirror switch, i hear a click over in the right mirror, but no movement..................have not looked for the broken wires yet................is there a relay or something inside the mirror itself that would click? The mirror will click if you try to run it too far in any particular direction. There is a coupling that slips to prevent damage to the motor at the end of travel of the glass or if the glass is jammed or obstructed. You didn't say if you had removed the glass (see Bentley) to see if there is any obvious mechanical problem. Larry A.
