Default headlight trouble...

one of my headlights no longer rotates. It was stuck "up" for a long time and then the other night decided to close, but won't open.

i heard this is a common problem, is there a somewhat easy fix for this, or is it easier to just take it in and have someone fix it?

if you unplug the headlight moter you can operate it manually till you get the problem fixed. if it mysteriously worked the other night you might want to take the moter out & inspect the internals....sounds like a possible bad connection(also could be worn gear)? :confused: good luck! :cheers:
