Maserati door mirrors

[Phil the Brit]

Maserati electrics!!
Quattroporte 2009 Door mirrors on both sides will go in/out and will fully go into park mode but they both won't go up or down. Anyone got any ideas.

Were folding mirrors an extra?

Not to my knowledge, standard I think

Really mine look like they have creases for a fold, but dont fold? How can I activate this?

Just read the manual part on mirrors Now I have folding mirrors, 6 months after buying the car

Yup, all I needed to do was turn the dial all the way around but I tried this before and didn't want to break it.

If the fault is common to both mirrors, suspect the changeover switch.
I would wager a bit of contact cleaner will have it working, water can drip from the roof when window is open & soak the panel..

An excuse not to sell it?

On the new saloons they only fold in at low speed whereas on mine, they will fold in at any speed which is useful given how wide these cars are.

There is never a day go by when I don't learn something new!

Gladly I've learned something good as opposed to an electric gremlin

Hope you get your issue sorted!
