Default Need Help!

I know this has been brought up so many times before, but i've never really got an answer to the problem with my headlights. They work just fine, except...

-motor on the driver side wont turn off.
-With switch in off position, pull the switch back a little to turn off motor.

I know there are 3 Relays in the '85, an isolation relay and 2 actuator relays. I've heard it could be the gears need to be replaced. I need to know what part needs to be replaced before I order cause I dont have a lot of money and dont want to waste my time installing parts that dont fix the problem. Will someone please help me???

uh, that sounds to me like the switch is DOA.... if a trick of the switch shuts the light off, I would bet on the switch.

The lights go off, but the motor still runs. Then I pull the **** out about 1/4" and it shuts off the motor.
