Default power mirror 06 mc

Need help with figuring out why my power mirrors aren't working properly. The driver side mirror only goes up and down. The passenger side mirror only goes left to right. Checked connections and fuses - OK. Switch looks ok also. Don't have a wiring diagram to look at. If anyone can help will be greatly appreciated. Thank You

did you also check for any material that might have got stuck there?
