Try manually folding it and pressing the button too. See if you can get it back into position.

Hey Sammy,
Helping it does not change anything, it hasn't been coded. When folded the same thing happens it moves very little but not enough to even look like it went anywhere.
Try following this service bulletin, it says it's for e9x with power folding mirrors
