Hi,
It cannot be an electrical connector or such because this is not what holds the headlamp in place. The thing that locks it in place is an eccentric rod which the socket/nutdriver attaches to. This rod enages the Headlight and locks in place. The Headlight also slides into a mounting plate and if it's not in those slots, the eccentric rod cannot fully engage or lock. Take the headlight out completely (it'll just slide right out), then carefully line it up with the slots on the mounting plate inside the fender. Now push the Headlight so that it engages the electrical connector and while keeping it under tension, twist/lock the eccentric Rod with the wrench until you hear/feel a
crack. This is the eccentric locking into place.
If this still doesn't work, remove the headlamp and with a flashlight check the mounting plate and electrical connector for damage or debris which would prevent the headlight from inserting far enough into each and the fender for the eccentic lock to engage. Hope this helps...
Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
