Headlight Motor Burnt Up??
Hey guys,
My headlights were in fine working order until the other day when I went to put them down - only one went down. I tried it again and the passengers side headlight won't go down. I tried to reset it with the crank and thats when I noticed the motor part right above the crank was really hot, the other side was perfectly cool to the touch. What might have happened here?
Thanks for any input for a fix or explanation.

it's just acting strangely, the motor must still work because it resets it self if you try to adjust it manually without unhooking the electrical connector. I dunno, I barely looked at it, I was just curious what would cause that to get so hot, I assume it's an electrical motor in there so I was thinking it burnt up.
