SIDE MIRROR WILL NOT FOLD

My 2008 F250's passenger side mirror will not fold/unfold with the switch. Also the motor continues to run when the switch is moved to fold/unfold the mirrors. Anyone have any suggestions for this problem?
Thanks

Take the switch assembly out of the door. Activate it and when the motor continues to run, unplug the switch. If the motor stops, I say it's the switch.

Thanks Fraklin2. If it was the switch wouldn't it affect the drivers side also?

That is a good point. I looked up the diagram, it shows a power fold relay, but that is also common to both sides. Unless you just bought this truck and it was in a wreck and repaired wrong, the only other thing I can think of is damaged wiring.
