Side mirror little joystick broken...

How do you replace the little joystick? It will not activate the side mirrors anymore.

Do you use a slotted screwdriver and wedge it out?

It's the joystick, because the mirrors will turn to the left and down only. It started out once and awhile but now all of the time.

got the same problem: only driver's side mirror will tilt down and out. had truck checked by local audio shop (did my a/v upgrade) and they suggested buying a new switch. Got a new one from FORD (around $30) and will drop by the shop this SAT who will gladly do the repair for free.

Let me know if you want some help putting that in - I've had my doors apart so many times I can do it in my sleep...

We could drink beer and eat wings afterward !!!!
