Default 94 HeadLamp Motor problem

94 LT1 Cpe - The right headlamp acts like it wants to open and close twice. It doesn't actually do it twice, just makes a ratcheting sound for an additional cycle. Any thoughts on what could be the cause or do I just replace everything....

Thanks

Sounds like worn bushings. Do a search on it, you'll find plenty of posts on it. Replacing the bushings is MUCH cheaper than replacing the whole unit.

Default Later C-4 Headlight Fix

Go to: www.corvettefever.com/howto/33098/. This article will walk you thru step by step for fix. I did both side's of my 89, first side took 3.5 hours, 2.0 hours. Cost: $4.95 per side for parts from Ecklers.
If I were you, I would do both sides. If you want to see up close pictures of my motors and gears when apart, e-mail me: vinterrv@aol.com.
