Default Slow closing headlight
The R headlight has what seems to be a delay of about 20 seconds before it closes. It always closes and I don't hear its motor until it actually closes ... so I don't think its laboring against friction to close.

Weird

Just a thought, but maybe the relay? You could switch the right and left relays to see if it works then.
