Door Mirror Mk2 Manual Adjust

[bhbobhill]

I have a mk2 galaxy some kind person knocked my drivers side door mirror off.

I managed to acquire one from the second hand scrapyard.

Its a pain getting it off, it is attached by 3 cables because its a manual adjust but I omitted to note which way the cables went on. The nipples are silver, copper and brass does any body know the order in which they go. Mine is on a 52 plate 1.9 diesel. Any help would be much appreciated

Has nobody got the answer to this problem. I have the Haynes book but absolutely no mention in it regarding this question it only deals with the electric version. Please somebody help.

if push comes to shove inspect the passenger side for clues.

Its a major operation just to get the door panel off.

You don't need to take the card off to see it - the bit holding the control prises up at one end (bottom end from looking at mine) and then the whole plate with it and the window control can be slid out.

 

I can't see how you've got the cables out of the control without breaking something though having taken mine off so can't advise which one to put where, would suggest you try putting one in first and moving the control about to see if its the right combination, not sure if you can manipluate the end of the cable to see if you can identify which one does which movement?

 

Can't really suggest a lot else here, and searching both here and the other forum doesn't suggest anything helpful either.

I will try what you suggest and thanks for your reply.
