If passenger one is working, i wouldn't of thought it would be a fuse issue. I doubt there is individual fuses for each side.

So many things that could be wrong, with so little information. Most mirrors you look into and you can see behind you so they work perfectly unless the glass is missing.
Plexed? Pre-plexed? Folding? Mirror adjustment? Heating element?
Check the door loom connections to make sure there aren't any loose wires. Ideally you could do with checking the connections for the mirror with a multimeter to see if power is getting to them. Could even be a dodgy switch.
