Yesterday morning on the way to work, I stopped at the corner station for a cup of coffee. It was early and the sun wasn't full up yet, thus I had on my 85's headlights. I turned off the car and heard the familar ding ding ding ding telling me that I'd left my headlights on. I turned them, and heard the familar and comforting winding noise of my two headlight motors. Then, the horror:
The drivers side light turned under and nestled in nicely, just like it was supposed to do. But the passenger's side light turned under and after it closed, it begane to GRIND horribly and sickly. It was like it kept trying to turn through and the was popping loudly, even after I removed the key from the ignition.
Is this the sound of a headlight motor that needs to be replaced, or is this possibly something that's fixable.
For the time being, I have the power pulled from the headlight, and am trying to avoid driving at night.
Thanks for the input.
