Default Pop -up light issues, please help.

I had a fender bender the other day, and the body shop is having issuue with my pop up light. When they cut the light on, the light flips up, but it continues to flip up and down over and over. Please advise.

I agree, compare the linkage and stops to the good headlight, sounds like the linkage keeps turning, it is suppose to hit stops (and the high current causes the headlight module to cut power).
