Another quick headlight question.

Hate to beat a dead horse but I`m waiting for the new gear to arrive & was wondering if anyone knows anything about turning the gear around to be able to make it work a while longer? Seems like I saw where someone has done that before . Thinking maybe disconnecting the acuator & turning the manual **** 180 deg. would do it? Has anyone heard of this? Thanks Dennis. P.S.This forum is great!

I've got a brand new brass gear sitting here going to waste. If you wish to drive up the 15 a short bit, you can have it.

Yes, that does work. Just take the arm off the motor and turn the **** until the output shaft rotates 180 degrees and put it back together.
