Default Right hand mirror issue

Ok. I just broke off my right hand mirror while backing up and hit a trash can. I took off the mirror and found that one of the screws out of the 3 that was holding it broke off. I glued back the plastic things that held the 3 screws back onto the turn signal mirror and plugged it back to the wire. I than screwed 2 of the bolts to the remaining 2 bolts.

After that I tried to use my right turn signal and the right blinker on my mirror doesnt flick anymore like usual..? I can still adjust the mirror but the light on it is not working anymore. Hopefully nothing bad happened to the wires...

anyone have a similar situation? I just placed an ordered for a new right hand turn signal off trdsparks.

everything is still good. its just the plastic holding the 3 nuts in, one of them broke off. i dunno why after i took off the mirror and put it back on the led didnt blink no more. is there a way to reset it or something? what if after i get in my new mirror and it doesnt signal no more either?

i got no idea. the only thing i can think of is a wire spliced, the leds busted, or the wire connecter damaged. and u said none of that is the issue. so im not sure. good luck though

check the wiring inside the mirror itself.

yank the painted cover piece off.. and you should see what you need to.
