RPO DL3 power folding mirror loose, moves or shakes after being folded by hand (cycle it electrically)

FaultCrate・RPO DL3 power folding mirror loose, moves or shakes after being folded by hand (cycle it electrically)
The result is that the mirror may move and/or shake.
These mirrors must always be moved electrically; a mirror folded inward by hand and moved back outboard by hand will not latch into the detent.
What to do
- If the mirror shows these conditions, cycle it inboard and back outboard with the electric controls; this makes the mirrors click into the proper detents.
- The "Do This" column says to cycle the mirror.
Caution
- The mirrors fold inboard electrically with the same switches used for adjusting the individual mirrors: place the L/R toggle switch in neutral, then use the pad to fold the mirrors in or out.
- New vehicle prep technicians should know these procedures and verify proper operation of the mirrors before delivery.
- For 2003 C/K fullsize pickups and utilities with a loose mirror, the table gives "Cycle mirror" under "Do This" and "Replace DL3 power folding mirror" under "Don't Do This"; the reference is 03-08-64-010 and a parts restriction.

Why it happensThese mirrors must always be moved electrically; a mirror folded inward by hand and moved back outboard by hand will not latch into the detent.
These mirrors must always be moved electrically. If a mirror is folded inward manually, and then moved back outboard manually, the mirror will not latch into the detent.— [1]
CautionThe mirrors fold inboard electrically with the same switches used for adjusting the individual mirrors: place the L/R toggle switch in neutral, then use the pad to fold the mirrors in or out.
The mirrors in this option can be folded inboard electrically (when entering a car wash, or parking in a confined space, for instance) using the same switches normally used for adjusting the individual mirrors. Place the L/R toggle switch in neutral. Then use the pad to fold the mirrors in or out.— [1]
