  • one stuck headlight

    ok my passanger side headlight is stuck up. litterly now i alread did take the arm off and rotate the gear around 180 degrees and that didn't help. before i go out and buy a new motor is there anything else to look for. it comes up fine by itself then it just stays up. then i have to go manually move it down. but it goes up fine, so i don't think its the gears. please any suggestions, cuz i don't want to have to take it to the shop to ask them cuz that cost lots of money

    thanks

    Is the motor even turning? If not, check the circuit to the motor. There is a relay in there that could fail, leaving you with an innoperable motor.

      He he... I'm convinced that the Wallflowers song "one headlight" was inspired by a firebird. I can't think of anything more white trash than a rusty thirdgen firebird with one eye shut!

        yeah i assume it is turning, cuz it will come up by itself but it just won't go down, could that be my headlight relay?, heck i will check that out thanks
