Default 89’ - Left Headlight Problems

My left headlight will not shut all the way. I can still manually crank the light closed all the way, but it will be harder to crank until it reaches a point where it will then be just as easy to crank as if the light was fully up and you were trying to lower it. It will flip up just fine unless I manually crank it flat then it will stop at a point where it won’t move any further. After looking around and tinkering a bit I found a piece of metal that is hooked to both the motor and headlight that is loose. I can’t seem to find any sort of screw or bolt that it’s attached to to tighten it down so before I go tearing into it, I just wanted to know if there’s any sort of peice I’d need to replace or if it would just be best to replace the whole motor and actuator.
