Default Headlight motor problem

Hey I have a 1985 corvette that I bought recently and the headlights were fine until a few weeks a go the problem was the passenger side motor when put in the down position wouldn't stop moving or rotating and it was loose as in I could flip the headlight a little bit so I took it to a shop to get an opinion and they said I needed a new motor so bought another one and replaced all three relays and now the driver one still works fine but the passenger one still has to be hand cranked up but the motor will put it down. I've tried pushing on it to make sure it wasn't stick but it feels like the motor is telling it to stay down. It's a tree wired motor with black green and a grey wire. Any reply would be appreciated thanks.
