'97 Firebird.
Generally, I prefer to raise the headlights manually and reach my skinny arms under them down to the turn signal lights to change the bulbs rather than remove the air dam and go from underneath. This time however, I over-tightened the manual raise/lower knob thingy when I was lowering them again. It kinda gave way with a little pop. I can retighten it, but eventually it gives way again with a little pop. The headlight still pops up and down using the lights switch, but on lowering, the motor keeps spinning for several seconds even after the light is down. Doesn't seem to hurt anything, but it's certainly loud and embarrassing. Any ideas on what I actually broke?
