When i use the switch to turn the passenger side wing mirror in either the up/down left/right direction the only thing it does is more left or right no up or down.

When i flick the switch to move the drivers side wing mirror i move the mirror a little and it blows the fuse.

Does anyone have any ideas is it a faulty switch or wiring? anyone know?

Thanks

Tom
