Power folding mirrors lubrication


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hey everyone, I have an 06 silverado with the heated power folding mirrors. Just recently both mirrors have started making a squeaking noise when folding in and out, doesnt seem like anything is rubbing but does anyone know if there is a way to lubricate them or what would be causing that to happen ?

ive thought about doing this also. I havent tried anything yet but i was thinking of using a plastic and electrical sensor safe lubricant to ensure i dont ruin the plastic gears and any electric motor close by.

Get a spray can of white lithium grease with the little straw, and spray it in there.

stick the tube in behind the mirror or is there a certain access point ?

The pivot point and fold it and spray the contact area thats exposed. I did it to my tow mirrors to make them easier to extend

I used white lithium on cranes. It is electrical safe

all fixed now, i had greased it before but never stopped, must not have hit the right spot
