2004 Dodge Stratus

I hit a trash can with my left side mirror and it took the mirror off. The mirror was put back on, but now they won't move electrically, the remote won't lock/ unlock or open any part of my car, and the radio won't come on not even the time but the buttons are lit up from behind. All of the fuses are good. What else could I try?

Hi, sorry for late reply. Thanks for the donation. The first thing I looked at was the power mirrors. Fuse 5--10 amp fuse in fuse box, interior, use a testlite on the fuse, the fuse may have a bare spot over each leg. The aligator clip on testlite goes to chassis ground/metal part. The pointed end goes to bare spot over each fuse leg, If the fuse is good and there is voltage on the circuit, the testlite will lite-up on both legs. Even if the fuse is good, if no voltage, the circuit is dead. If that checks out ok, I'd check the circuits at the power mirror switch.

Again, for the radio check fuse 5-- 10 amp, left side fuse box.
