To replace the light bulbs in the sun visor vanity mirror on a 1991 Ford Escort LX, the mirror will have to be replaced. This part does not have replacement bulbs readily available. If the bulbs are not working it is a problem with a fuse as these run off the battery and are on the same circuit as the interior lights.
Usually, to replace any power mirror, you must first remove the inside door panel. From there you should have access to the rear of the mirror. There has to be some screws (usually 3 screws) holding the mirror in place. Also follow the wires from the mirror to where it is connected and disconnect.
you probaly can't do it yourself so take it to a shop that can and if they have something to replace it with.
If it is like the 99 SL then open the door, remove the black cover in the corner of the window on the inside. Remove the 3 nuts using 10mm socket, remove black cover, or mirror from the outside. Place new mirror from the outside, put nuts back on the 3 posts or bolts from the inside, replace black cover by firmly pushing back on and you are done. Hope this helps...good luck
