Headlights - bad relay?
I have a couple issues currently with my headlights, I figured out that I have a stripped gear on my driver side bucket but the other issue I still can’t figure out is that my buckets now open on a half turn (one click) of the light switch, instead of a full turn (two clicks). I have checked fuses and they are good. For the 8 years I have owned the car a half turn would only turn on the drl’s and also illuminate the interior lights... a full turn would open the headlight buckets. could this be a bad relay and if so where’s a good place to get a replacement?

Just wanted to revive this thread with an update for anyone that might have the same situation. I replaced the headlight motor gear this evening and now the lights are working just like they’re supposed to, the buckets open now with a full turn of the switch.
