Headlight ISSUE

My left headlight stopped working a few days ago. I got a new motor for it and new wire connections from the motor to the car connection.

When I plugged in the motor, the newly installed headlight turned outwards (in the on position) immediately while the other one stayed turned off. When I pulled the headlight switch out to turn the other one on, it came on so both headlights were on. Then when I went to turn them off, the new one stayed on.

When I would manually put it back in...about halfway it would turn back on.

Any suggestions?

I did that. Its random when it decides to move, but the connection from the new motor is brand new from ecklers and the car connection are shielded.

un-plug the new one , activate the old one, disconnect your battery and then match the new to the old. after that it gets more complicated
