either the motor is burned out,,,or a loose connection. I had a problem with the light not coming on,,,cleaned the connectors and worked fine
Check and clean the connections,,,if nothing, then replace motor

A special THANKS to Brent Franker http://bfranker.badz28.com for A great price and SUPER fast shipping on a Brass Replacement Headlight Gear ! BTW for those having issues or those with C-5's that are over 3 years old you might want to read about the "loose headlight motor issue BEFORE you strip a gear !! http://www.bfranker.badz28.com/headlightfix/index.htm

search will show this is a very common issue...I think there are other threads on the front page at this very moment here in this section or the general.
the brass/metal gear kit is what you need more than likely

Had the same problem about a month ago. Ordered the brass gear kit and installed it everything is working fine now. I found that the plastic gear had a rough or flat spot on the teeth of the gear.
