Best to you.

Pretty sure the mirror switch is the culprit(I'm assuming the joystick and selector switch are all one piece).

The switch is a contact type. When you move the switch it complete the circuit by connect the two contacts points. After some time the switches wear out simply replace the switch.

The mirror adjusts itself at night to get rid of glare like your rear view does, this is done by a liquid in the glass when it goes "bad" you will get the problem you have. The solution is have a dealer replace the mirror or an auto glass store can glue a replace mirror over the existing but you will lose the self adjusting at night.

I am assuming you are talking about the interior rear view mirror and not the side rear view mirror. Most auto parts stores sell an adhesive glue to fix the interior rear view mirror. Most of these mirrors have two parts to them. One part is the bracket that glues to the windshield and the other part is the rear view mirror assembly. Before gluing the bracket to the glass check and see how the mirror assembly attaches to the bracket. There will often be a screw that fixed the two together.

Unless the 1999 uses a different mirror from my '96, if it has an inside adjuster lever it's cables in the mirror. You can find aftermarket replacements for around $30 to $40 for Saturns.

There are two tiny motors in each mirror. one for up/down. One for side to side. They have jack screws (plastic) that fit into the motors.

You can manually put your hands on either side of the mirror and force adjust it. If you hear a ratcheting sound, the jack screws are OK. Then repeat with hands on top and bottom.

If you hear ratcheting and mirror stays where you stop it, that means one of the motors is bad. The motor assembly is available as a separate part.

Might be cheaper to buy used irror at car-part.com. Look for * to find page with cheapest part. Or, EBay. Good luck

It's usually a mechanical problem and they really aren't repairable.

I replaced the ones on my 83 Celica GT with replacement units that I bought on-line from Redneck Auto Parts for about $60 each.

The Chrysler voyager van you have has manual mirrors. If it would have power mirrors the controls would be mounted on the drivers side door or the dash panel beside the headlight switch.
