Have both of them stopped folding at the same time? If so then I guess fuse is the first thing to check, but I've no idea which fuse it is. No doubt Geoff or another electrical expert will be along shortly to advise. Good luck.
PS - typing 'mirror AND fuse' into the Search box brings up lots of stuff - worth a read maybe?

Are they powered by a Leisure battery?.... could be a feed/fuse....

Great result
It gets to be a whole load more hassle if its the mirror mechanisms themselves that have packed up. Still wonder why the fuse blew though - any sign of straining or funny noises going on?

That fuse powers several things including Radio and cigar lighters so it doesn't have to be the mirrors being at fault!
