  • Headlight grinding, tried fixing with no luck

    I replaced my gear in my headlight motor thinking that that would cure the grinding noise of the motor not stopping. IK took it apart many times but never used apoxy to put it back together. I did this last time and tightened upreal well and it worked find for about 10 times of the lights going up and down and now they only grind when going up. They used to be both at one point. So what should i do?

    Go and replace the new motor and gear housing from like kragen for like $125 or find a local pickinpool where i can just go and snatch one for cheap. Where are they around the bay area closer to SF?


    thanks

    please in the future make your thread titles something that describes the situation at hand to help future people when searching find answers quicker. Your title doesn't help anyone when searching and doesn't get people that understand your problem in here to answer it. I will change it this time

    rant off.
