    Mirrors glass automatically adjusts to look at the floor

    Hi All,
    I have the most obscure issue that has begun since my batteries died and were recharged.

    Both L and R mirrors automatically adjust themselves to the all the way down position. If I move the switch to the correct side, I can adjust tit, but as soon as I let go, they go back looking at the floor.

    If I keep the switch to the left, the mirror will stop automatically, as soon as I switch the button to the right, it auto goes to looking at the floor.

    Not sure if this is related, but I have my OBC out for repair.

    Any clues? Where to start? Search revealed nothing.

    Mine did that - but replacement of the mirror switches sorted it out - but I also noted that it would be very easy to clean the contacts as described here:
