2009 qq visia. Basic model the wingmirrors wont adjust, any knowledgeable people know the fuse location or any other issue that could cause these both to fail. The adjuster switch feels a little too easy to move about, or is it meant to be that way thanks in advance.

Fusebox bottom right of dash; top left fuse #20, 10A is for the door mirror remote control switch. Sounds like a dodgy switch though. Make sure you know the stereo's code, if it has one, before pulling the fuse - I think it shares the same fuse.

I assume you are turning the switch left or right first to select the mirror, before trying to adjust it?

In the event that it's not a fuse and you're sure the switch is goosed, this looks like the right one for a J10:

Audio I'm not certain about. Other online info identifies Fuse #12 as the audio fuse, yet my service manual shows this position as unused. Maybe #20 can also cover a subwoofer, or the optional multi CD changer, or something. Not having a J10 QQ, I can only guess!

But service manual clearly shows #20 as being for mirror switch. Perhaps Nissan tweaked the electrics a bit on later models.

It's a bit strange that you have no fuse there. The Visia's mirrors don't fold, but they do adjust, so I'd expect a fuse...

Does your 12v socket work? If not, then the accessory relay that feeds it and the mirror switch could be faulty.
