    Hi there.
    I bought a 2005 peugeot 407 1.6 hdi about 2 months ag . When I lock the CSR, the passenger mirror will close in, but the driver side does no .
    Does anyone know how I could fix this? Thanks

    Does the mirror fold using the switch?

    Yeah, it's on the switch that you select left/right mirror

    It may have lost its original mirror in its last life and was replaced by a standard S Model 407 mirror.

    As colm_mcm said the left/right mirror selection switch controls the folding mirrors also....Place the switch in the middle position and pull back on it this should open/close the folding mirrors..:)

    If it is a standard mirror (non folding) then you should be able to pick one up from your local breakers yard and swap out the mirror back plate if its a different colour.

    Ooh. I never knew that. No, the drivers mirror doesn't close with the switch either. Thanks for the help. I'll keep a look out for a folding mirror.

    I did not know that. I really must read the handbook.

    Oddly, although you can pull the switch to fold the mirrors, on my 09 C5, pretty much an identical layout is there, but when you pull the button nothing happens?

    Does anyone know; was the feature removed on safety grounds or something? Or am i just missing a fuse? :o

    Is there an arrow symbol pointing towards the back of the car?

    It's a Citroen, you can't expect everything to work at the same time :)

    I'm not sure about the arrow, to be honest, but it does have that 'pull' motion in the switch.

    You're right though, to a degree.. I won't bother looking into it. I'll probably fix it but lose my power steering in the process. :rolleyes: :p
