Power mirror gear. Anyone?

[BarryG]

Greetings all! My 2012 r-spec passenger mirror has decided to stop power folding and just clicks away. I disassembled the mirror and found the problem The plastic gear(on a metal shaft) had stripped out and cracked. Causing the shaft to just spin away. I tried epoxying the whole this as one piece, worked about a dozen times then just split again. So question is; does anyone know where I can get a replacement gear. Prefer just the plastic part but whole thing if necessary. Dealers have zero clue to what I'm talking about. One even told me I don't have power folding mirrors until I made him come out and see. I found a similar looking one on Ebay for a Hyundai I30, but I don't know if it's truly the same. Thanks for any help. Picture of the whole part attached.

yeah, it's China's version of Ebay, I've used it a few times, parts take awhile to get here from China 2-3 weeks, but I've never been ripped off from it. But I never buy anything high priced either.


it tends to carry a lot of the internal workings of "non-repairable" electronic and mechanical devices, that were probably made in China in the first place.

might check the size and teeth count on yours.. I suspect however all Hyundai models likely use the same parts.

yeah that's the one I mentioned for a Hyundai I30, from Turkey. There is one US seller and I reached out to him yesterday with no reply yet.

even though this is a Lexus, the basic design is likely the same, might want to check the worm gear for wear also:

worm gear is stainless steal. The one from Turkey, Poland, UK for the I30 are solid metal. Wouldn't crack, but, I'm afraid it might eat up the adjoining plastic gears if not perfect.

yeah I meant the adjoining worm gear that is on the motor.. I haven't cracked open a Hyundai mirror, but I have a Lexus and several GMs and Chryslers, and the insides are all basically the same.

 

[BarryG]

yeah it's fine as well the broken piece I have seems to be the common weakness.

I need to search better! I looked through Amazon too. It's Prime, so it's covered and here by Friday to boot.
