Headlight Motor
My headlight will flip about halfway up then stop. If i help it along the way and will go all the way and stay, but otherwise it just stops halfway. Also, if i just turn on the fogs when i turn the lights off the motor keeps running for a while.

Re: Headlight Motor (Kehrer923)
Sounds like it's time to go to http://www.ecklers.com and buy (2) packs of p/n: 29304. They are the three bushings for each motor. They are about $5 per pack and you may as well do both because if one side is bad the other side is right behind it.
There is a good article in tech tips on the procedure, it's real easy... :smash:

Re: Headlight Motor (Cap'n Rich)
I agree with the posts above which suggest the bushings might be the issue...however here is another possibility. When I attempted to fix mine it was the nylon gear that was gone. I replaced it with the brass one seen in the catalog. That was 2 1/2 years ago and they still work as designed.
