Mirror folding malfunction is caused by damage to the electric actuator. If you encounter this situation, you should check the electric folding mechanism. Visit a 4S shop to check if there are any issues with the mirror circuit. Generally, such malfunctions are caused by settings or circuit problems.

Sometimes the automatic folding function of my car's rearview mirror fails. This could be due to a blown fuse or a faulty switch. I will first check the fuse box to locate the relevant fuse and see if it's blown, then replace it with a spare one. If that doesn't work, I'll try resetting the system—some cars allow you to reset the function by holding down the folding button for a long time. Avoid forcing the mirror to fold manually to prevent damaging the gears. If the problem persists, it might be due to loose wiring or a faulty control module, which requires professional inspection. I once had a similar issue with a stuck power window, which turned out to be a broken connection wire. After washing the car, always dry the connectors to reduce moisture damage. Regular maintenance can help prevent such issues. In any case, don't delay fixing it to avoid more trouble, like damaging the mirror while parking.
