Default Headlight Problem

A friend bought a 2000 coupe yesterday.

When he turns the headlights off both lights go off and close but the driver side light pops back up.

Don't think its a gear problem. They work fine up and down just the driver side won't stay down.

Relay? Adjustment?

Thanks for any suggestions.

Thanks for the info.

I'll pass this on to him today.

wca_tim: If he can't get the dealer he just bought the car from to fix it, he may be in touch.

One of the plastic "bumpers" is probably broken. Cheap fix.
