I think my ZHP is haunted. I was cleaning my garage and heard the mirrors start moving. Then, as I was driving down the road the mirrors started moving. I then noticed that I couldn't adjust them with the switch, it would go full deflection in whatever direction I tried to move them. I installed a new switch, but that didn't help; any suggestions?

It may be the mirror memory module.

When I shift into reverse my mirror gets stuck in the down position.

I have heard its the memory module that is going bad.

Maybe yours is the same.

I have this issue. It only happens when I unlock the car.

That might be because you have a key memory setting?

Nah. Sometime it goes all the way up, sometimes all the way down, alternating between mirrors. Lol. My car haz dumb.

I had an issue where my ribbon cables were messed up. Check your mirror cables and see if there is any damage somewhere.

I had to purchase #5 as the ribbons are connected to the mirror motor.
