MIRROR STUCK! '01 HYUNDAI ACCENT

Hello,

This morning I couldn't fully move the left outside mirror from my '01
Accent. It's a manual mirror, nothing electrical or fancy; I move it
by hand from the inside of the car. It's moving to the left and right,
but not up and down. My right one is working properly.

1. WHAT CAN BE WRONG?
2. HOW DO I REMOVE MY LEFT OUTSIDE MIRROR IN ORDER TO SERVICE IT (I
cannot find it at http://www.hmaservice.com)?

Thank you,
Rob

 

I had to replace the driver's side mirror on my '96 Accent after I wrecked it. To that what was
left of the old mirror off I had to remove a plastic plate on the inside of the door (up close to
the windshield) to get to the bolts that hold the mirror housing itself on. This may be the same
for you.

 

Thanks! I'll try to do the same.

 

Can it be my left mirror is stuck? I'm living in Alaska and it's 10F
now. The right one isn't stuck.

Thank you,
Rob

 

SOME WD 40 WILL DO IT FOR YOU
THE CABEL IS RUSTED I WOULD THING
JUST SPRAY WD 40 IN SIDE AS GOOD AS YOU CAN
JUST KEEP A RAG UNDER THE MORROR SO THE WD 40 DONT GET ONE YOU PAIN
HOPE THAT HELPS
