Auto-Dimming Mirrors Not Working

I did some searching on this and didn't find a solution to my problem. My rearview and side view mirrors are on full dim at all times day and night. Has anyone else run into this problem? Any tips on troubleshooting? Thanks in advance.

Check fuse and mirror

Make sure the little light sensor isnt covered behind the rearview mirror and check your fuse hope this helps

The sensor is not covered, I guess the fuse is next. Do you happen to know where the fuse is located? I'm assuming behind the glove box, do you know the number?
