Default Review mirror fuse?

I searched the forum for the answer and if it's out there I can't find it. Is there a fuse or circuit breaker for the review mirror? I noticed coming in this morning that the auto dim feature wasn't working when I got to work I checked the map lights and they aren't working either. I checked to see if the wiring had pulled loose from the back of the mirror, it was snug. I brought the owners manual into work with me and can't find anything that looks like it's for the review mirror.

Anyone else experience this? Was afraid at first that I might be having the same problem as Chibiblacksheep, but as I said there appears to be no power to the mirror since the map lights don't work either. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated! TIA

What problem did I have?! :P

You would notice the liquid leaking out / evaporating.

Or do you mean my wiring problem? Sometimes I have to crimp / play with the wire (not the connection to the mirror) but the actual wire to get my stuff to jump on. I think something in there is fried, but I'm too lazy to go piggy-back in a new wire.

Nah, was referring to the liquid. Wasn't aware that you had a wire loose, a few loose screws sure, but not wires.

The liquid would easily be seen. It distorts everything you look at with the mirror, and it makes the mirror very light.

I don't know about a fuse, I would assume check both your fuse doors and see.
