W203 Wing Mirrors Not Working

Guys, my W203 wing mirrors have stopped working... They were working a few days ago but now nothing... Any ideas?

what do you mean they are not working?

you look in them - you see yourself - ah, they're fixed. A miracle!

no but seriously - is it the indicators or the folding or the heating?

checked the fuses?
checked the menu on the instrument cluster?
do they fold via the button?

If they've stopped folding then they usually just need a slight helping hand as the button is pressed. I spray silicone lube into the folding mechanism every now and again (but don't let the spray get on the windscreen).
