My mirrors have worked fine then they just stopped working the are stuck closed and will not move the glass as well.

 

After checking procedures in the manual, sounds like it may be time to visit the dealer. Please let us know what happens. Your story may help many other drivers with the same feature.

****************The ignition must be switched to ACC or ON position.

To fold, rotate the outside mirror switch.

To return the mirror to the driving position, rotate the switch to the center position.
Automatic folding function (Some Models)

The automatic folding function operates when the ignition is switched to OFF.

When the outside mirror switch is in a position other than the fold-in position, the outside mirrors automatically fold in and out when the doors are locked and unlocked.

Also, when the ignition is switched ON or the engine is started, the outside mirrors fold out automatically.


The outside mirrors may not fold in and out automatically under cold weather conditions.

If the outside mirrors do not fold in and out automatically, remove any ice or snow, and then operate the outside mirror switch to fold the outside mirrors in or out.

Close NoteCanceling the automatic folding function

To cancel the automatic folding function, carry out the following procedure using the master control switches.

1. Switch the ignition ON.
   
2. If the power window lock switch is in the unlock position, switch it to the lock position.
   
3. Press and hold the front passenger's power window switch and rear left/right power window switches on the driver's door at the same time for 3 seconds or longer.
   

• The automatic folding function cannot be canceled if the procedure is not completed within the specified times, or the procedure is changed along the way. To redo the procedure, first switch the ignition off and proceed from the beginning.
  

• If you are unable to cancel the function despite doing the cancellation procedure, consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
  

Close NoteRestoring the automatic folding function

With the automatic folding function in the canceled state, repeat the previous procedure for canceling the function and it will be restored.

 

Have you check the fuses? or relay?

Sometimes its the simplest of things that go wrong!

Hi,

Did you find a solution to this problem? I am just experiencing the same on my CX-5. Fuses are fine, but mirrors won't fold and glasses won't move on either side. Happened while I was adjusting the mirrors, so suspect a faulty switch. But would like to hear if you might have experienced other possible reasons.

 

I heard there is a known problem with car washes causing an issue with water intrusion. Something about a seal, not sure if it was a recall or TSB.

 

Is the problem only when it's cold out, freezing temperatures? I have the same issue and it's caused by ice deposits between the mirror housings and the mounts. You can check this by seeing if they are partially loose, not locked in the closed position by pushing on the mirror housing gently to see if it moves in toward the window/door. If it does, you can pull it out gently toward the open position just a bit to get past the ice deposits. Do not manually extend the mirrors to their normal position because you may break something. You just want them to go past ice block. Then use your mirror control switch to move them all the way closed by rotating the **** all the way to the bottom. Then rotate it back to the normal position at the top. The mirrors should extend completely and be fine.
