When servicing the vehicle with the VIN you entered, the following diagnosis might be helpful if the vehicle exhibits the described symptoms.
Customers with the new outside rearview power camper mirrors (RPO DPF) on 2003 model year full size pickups, may comment that these mirrors may not fully extend. Customer will note that the motor is functioning but the mirror will not extend. A clicking noise also can be heard and customer may think that this is a broken component, when ,in fact, it is the internal clutch of the mirror motors operating. Root cause appears to be dirt build up on the white nylon slides causing the mirror unit to bind. Have dealer clean the slide areas, and then spray lube the nylon slides with a graphite dry lube.
