No doubt the motor's on the way out. I don't think I'll miss it much, BUT is the motor readily visible, do you think?

If it's not too much of a pain (and it's nearly gone anyway) I may fiddle around with it to see if it's "user serviceable".
Hi,

The motor is integral to a component known as the Angle Sensor, which through a series of levers and intermediate links provides the mechanical force required to move the headlights. The Parts Manual describes it as Electric Motor, but lists no PN or Price, it says to Call. One thing though, once this is fixed, it takes a PST2 to calibrate it, so the Dealer has to get involved at some point. Hope this helps...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99

wonder if you can readjust the "level" line to be further up. I easily outrun my low beams and high beams. There is adequate light - for stockers - they just could be aimed a bit further out.
