Default Head lights come up at different times

What the title says, is there an adjustment? When I turn on my lights they are not coming up at the same exact time, the left comes up slightly before the right.

if one side is going higher than the other then check the gears to see if theyre both in the same positions, if not it may just be that one is getting power before the other... maybe a short somewhere?? just an idea

One is not going up higher than the other, they are just not timed right.

Mine did that and it turned out to be the plastic gears and a rubber piece inside the headlight motors. You can buy a rebuild kit that will fix it for about $75 bucks for both headlights. I was only gonna do one light but I'm glad I did both since the other one was about to go too.
