Retractable wing mirror issue

I noticed this morning that my passenger side wing mirror hasn't fully opened and only opens out a third of the way, the drivers side is fine.
I've moved the little dial onto various positions that's near the electric window buttons and have even tried to reset the electric windows plus held the fob botton in to try and reset the mechanism but that mirror only moves in and out a third of the way!!!

After 30 minutes of messing around it did retract fully 3 times out of a possible 20 tries so on the basis of that is the motor broken or not if it does retract occasionally??

The last time it retracted I had no choice but to go into my infotainment settings and untick the option to close the mirrors when I lock the door so at least I've managed to keep the mirrors out as I don't want to be messing about with them every time I get into the car.
The actual mirror itself works perfectly, it's just the housing that is playing up.

Anything else I can try?
