Can't see dirty contacts being the problem if one is folding and the other isn't. More likely a problem with the mirror motor or wiring. Try applying power to the motor directly, the two wires are +ve and -ve, can't remember which is which. One polarity opens or folds the mirror, reversing the polarity moves it in the other direction.

If its the gears you should still hear the motor working.

There is a "how to" for changing the gears. Trebor who wrote the how to used to supply replacement gears but don't know if he still does.

Where did you get the mirrors and do you know if they were working correctly before you got them?
