Side mirrors stopped extending?

I have a 2011 F250 Superduty and the switch isn’t working to extend and retract the mirrors.  I have not used them in a while and somehow I must have hit the switch and it got stuck in the depressed position.  Now the mirrors don’t work.  Is there a fuse to check before pulling the switch?  If so where is it located?

Thanks!

Might try to find a schematic, if the switch is stuck, there is mostly likely a relay, and it would be stuck in extend or retract until you release the switch if my understanding of how it works is accurate.  Try the opposite side, if it works, the fuse is probably not the issue as I doubt there is a fuse for each side but I'm guessing.  Remove the switch and operate manually using jumper wires, if this is not something you feel comfortable diagnosing, need to take to a shop.  Electrical diagnosis takes a good understanding of circuits and trouble shooting skills and sometimes even shops don't know how to properly troubleshoot and end up just being parts replacers.  Good luck...

Wade,

See below, this is the mirror extend circuit for a 2017, might be same or similar to yours.  Maybe this will help you diagnose your problem, might be different than your design and not help.

You can purchase service CDs online that is same as what dealer's use.
