This is a driver’s side mirror replacement. My vehicle is a 2013 Cadillac Escalade platinum edition. The mirror was broken and hanging down by wires. I show how to reassemble the mirror.
Several people have asked me where I ordered this part that I replaced in the video. Please keep in mind that my mirror glass was not broken, only my motor, actuator.
Here are some helpful links to the parts you will need to do the work:
I ordered it from www.gmpartsstore.com. The part number is 25808705. Below is the hyperlink to the part on gmpartsstore domain.

Please let me know if this works for you. I would love to hear about your success and how you are contributing to the learning community out there.

FYI for viewers. The actuator screw size on mine was a T10. Thanks for the video. It was very helpful.

Awesome. Thank you for contributing to everyone that watches.

Thanks for posting this video. I was finally able to feel confident enough to take my unbroken driverside mirror off. The heating element wouldn't get power because of corrosion on the two terminals on the backside of the mirror. I was also needing to tighten up the mirror somehow and it was those 4 screws holding in the motor to the back plastic frame of the mirror housing, that were loose.

@prestonppratt 2 года назад

That is awesome! Glad it helped you. I appreciate you taking the time to post the comment. Makes me happy knowing you were successful.

@fernandoramos7679 2 года назад

@@prestonppratt no problem, I did notice you had your mirror folded back past resting point. Does your Escalade not have power folding mirrors? I figured that would mess up the gears if I would of pushed it back like yours was in the video. I only ask because my driver side mirror is a little slower than passenger side mirror when folding in and back out.

@prestonppratt 2 года назад

It does have power folding mirrors.

@fernandoramos7679 2 года назад

@@prestonppratt I found a video that explains pushing the mirror back like you did will reset them if the sprocket and motor were seated correctly if taken off previously. I'm waiting on the rain to finally let up for a day and I'm going to take the whole mirror assembly off so I can check the sprockets and placement of the little motor of the folding mirror. Once again thank you for posting this video.

I will only say the mirror doesn't come off extremely easy. FYI push or lift up toward to top of the mirror from one of the top corners to get it out and be patient and take your time.

Great video and very informative...! I have a 07 Ext Escalade and the mirror on the drivers side will fold in and out and the adjustment on the right to left works however the adjustment on the up and does nothing... any ideas?

@prestonppratt 11 месяцев назад

Interesting. You might consider popping the actual mirror out and seeing if the up and down motor control is just a loose wire. If you get in there, it might be obvious. Pretty easy to pop out. Let me know how you do!

Recommend searching on gmpartsstore.com. They will have what you need.

@katlamb7671 4 года назад

How did you get the old mirror off? Thx

@prestonppratt 4 года назад

The mirror has clips that snap in place. In the video, I put the new one in by getting it aligned and sliding it down. To get the mirror off, you slide it straight up. This will release the clips, and you can get it off.

@omarvillegas7161 3 года назад

The clips on my motor assembly are broke idk what part I need

@prestonppratt 3 года назад

I left links to parts in the description. You should be able to purchase the clips off the parts list.

@peteloomis8456 4 года назад

How does the old mirror come off ?

@prestonppratt 4 года назад

Later in the video, I put the mirror back in by pulling down on it to snap it back in. Use the opposite technique to take it off. Push up or try to slide the mirror up. It will free the clips, and you can get it out.

@Eedebezm1 3 года назад

@@prestonppratt How do you replace the broken clips?

@prestonppratt 3 года назад

The clips are part of a plastic plate. You will have to order that new plate. I put a link the the website for parts previous. Hope this helps.

@sp00f34 Год назад

my entire mirror is loose. not just the glass. im assuming its loose on the swivel part. how do you think i can tighten it? does it need to be tightened? whats wrong with it? ps: motor OCCASIONALLY collapses with the switch in the door. 95 percent of the time it doesnt shut

@prestonppratt Год назад

It’s very hard to tell without more detail, but if the entire mirror is loose, you might start by taking the glass off and looking to see if anything is broken on the interior, before you purchase and replace the whole mirror assembly.

@rj-christinejames9233 4 года назад

Where did you get the parts and what are they called. Basically the pieces you start with

@prestonppratt 4 года назад

Thanks for the comment RJ-Christine James. I updated the video notes to include the links to the parts. You can check there, but here is a cut and paste of the same information. Good luck with your repair. Here are some helpful links to the parts you will need to do the work: I ordered it from www.gmpartsstore.com. The part number is 25808705.

@prestonppratt 4 года назад

The schematics are not great, but If you search multiple websites for the parts, you will find they all use the same drawings. I have used them to order quite a few parts to make repairs and have never had an issue. Make sure you double check your vehicle model against what’s listed.

@gdub14 2 года назад

Would have been good to start with removing the mirror...

@prestonppratt 2 года назад

Unfortunately, mine broke off, so there wasn’t an opportunity to show the disassemble portion.

I been trying to buy this part from the GMparts but they will only sell me the whole assembly which is a bunch of crock. I hate this, i just need the same part you bought.

@prestonppratt 2 года назад

There are several other parts suppliers out there for you to try. It could just be an issue with the supply chain.

@freddymora3942 Год назад

Well i was using the one you posted on the page above, not sure what is going on but the dealership wants over $400 to change everything out and i dont need the mirror replaced, just the part that holds it. @@prestonppratt

@prestonppratt Год назад

Wow, $400 is outrageous. You can change it out yourself. Look on the diagram for the mirror. You should be able to find the specific part you need. Find the drawing with parts. I am confident you can do it! I look forward to hearing back from you. Put a picture of your success on instagram and tag me @prestonppratt. I will be your accountability partner to get it done!
