2000 Elect. Mirrors--QUESTION-

I have a 2000 Expy and the elect mirror switch will only adjust the mirrors up, but not down or out on either side.
So, I assume the switch is bad?
How do I remove the switch?
Does anyone know where the parts may be found?
Thanks

Just pry it out with a small screwdriver. Un-lighted switches can be found just about anywhere. Lighted switches are a dealer item.

Pry off switch and spray with contact cleaner and then try using the switch again.

Easy. Just use a tiny flat blade screwdriver and gently pry upwards.

I had to replace mine once. I think it goes bad from rain water getting in it. Another stupid location for a switch on a truck with no rain gutters.
