Default flip head lights?

I am a new Vette owner just got my first C4..I have a question about the flip up headlights..the other night when I turned off the lights only one completed its cycle and disapeared..I opened the front and turned a little bottle like thing near the headlight until it was completely closed..is this little contraption some kind of adjusting mechanisim..seems the one that closed was screwed all the way down while the one that stayed open needed to be turned to get it closed..did I do something wrong?..by the way..I am loving my first ever corvette

Welcome to the forum.

The headlight issue is a common problem. It's an easy but time consuming repair.

See this thread for a couple links to assist in the repair.

No problem. If/when you attempt it don't hesitate to ask questions. Many of us have gone through it already.
