The likely cause for the problem is that the metal pin of the microswitch is loose. When the mirrors are folded and there's not a contact to the microswitch the mirrors are folded back to their original position.

The microswitch is inside the mirror. You don't need any tools to fix the problem, but you need to be careful when removing the plastic covers of the mirror. You can find the repairing instructions from here:
