I accidently hit the driver's side view mirror while washing my 2002ST the other day and apparently one of the tension springs popped out of it's bracket. I kept playing with the mirror until the whole face came off. On the back were the two springs and two forks that plug into the directional motor.
How in Gods name does one put this thing back together? You have to somehow get the two hooks snagged back around their brackets and get the two forks plugged back in the motor sockets all at the same time. I don't know how to do it. How did they ever do it at the factory? As an engineer I've usually been able to figure out how to fix something but this one has me stumped. Don't even begin to tell me to I have to replace the whole mirror assembly.
Let me know if you can help.
