Thank you. I didn't see a fuse dedicated to them, so this is good confirmation.

I just noticed that neither of my side view mirrors adjust from the controls on the driver arm rest. This makes me think there is either a loose connection or a blown fuse. Searching the forums doesn't turn much up. Has anyone ever had both mirrors stop responding to adjustments? To answer the...
