The headlight door motor is connected to the headlight via a lifting arm. There is a 10mm nut that holds the lifting arm to the motor. If this nut is not tight enough, the arm will not hit the limiters and continue to move up and down.

you're welcome. You may want to install a spring-style lock washer to keep it from backing off again.
