Lights won’t go up
The other day I was working on the car and forgot to turn off the ignition switch that was on the accessory. The battery was almost completely dead in the morning where I had to jump it to start it. Since then my head light will not open. But I don’t know if it’s because I installed new LED turn signal last week. Could it be the battery does not power. I tried to turn off the twilight but after pressing option twilight setting does not come up???

I had this issue last night, oddly enough (just on passenger side). No grinding noise from gears or sound of passenger motor running, the light just didn't pop up. Both headlights were illuminated (so the passenger headlight was just shining into the inside of the front bumper). After some searching in the forums I found that turning the **** that is accessed by removing the rubber boot (says something like "for manual operation" on it) maybe 1/4-1/2 turn counterclockwise can help with this. That did the ticket for me. I still don't know what it actually does or why it worked.
When I was out before heading home and the issue first occurred, I tried turning that **** clockwise thinking (due to the "for manual operation" label) it would crank the headlight up. It seemed to do nothing. But for some reason, loosening it allowed the headlight to pop up again.

LED turn signal/side marker
Installed hiperflash preventer due to the LED side markers front turn signal.
It started right after install
