Power Folding Mirrors Help-, pass. mirror get stuck on closing Options

[eggman40]

wired mine up today and the drivers side opens and closes perfectly. My pass. side opens perfectly but on the close cyle it get stuck. i hear a clicking sound like its the plastic gear thats slipping. Unless i help it close, it will continue to click continuously. Took it appart but didnt know how to get into the gearbox...


any suggestions? maybe grease in a certain spot? was i screwed on my mirrors?? thanks for any help.

got my mirror this far:



worm gear is firmly attatched to the motor and the other blue gear is spinng fine, any other suggestions at this point?


Edit: ok i tested the mirror without the housing and with the worm gears exposed. The gears spin perfectly on the close/open cyle. Only thing is that when they spin counter clock wise (close cycle) the mirror stops closing and there is a click in the gear box. any pre-cautions when opening the gear box?

thanks!
