When the lights on my 98 close there is the sound of gears spinning for 15-20 seconds.
I had a 98 TA that did the same thing until they stopped working and replacing the nylon gears was the fix.
Am I looking at the same issue?

Thanks

Yes, it seems you probably have a broken plastic gear in the headlights.

Get a kit like this one (pay attention because there are 2 different kits: one for "97 to early 2000" and another for "late 2000 to 2004") and follow these step-by-step directions. You'll save money and they will last forever

You might need these as well (the rubber bump stops).

There is a TSB, that calls for shimming the driver's side motor. The parts needed for this are included in the above mentioned kit.
