TA Headlight motor noise It still works but one side doesn't shut off when it should. It makes noise for about 5-10 seconds after the headlight is down. Can you adjust it or does it need a new motor??

I have that same issue as well. I think it will either need a new motor, or a brass replacement gear.
As a temporary fix for mine, I just raised my headlights up and then pulled the fuses, so the headlights still work, they just won't try to lower themselves and make that embarrassing noise!

Time for a new motor. The brass gears could work but I've heard some people same that they end up strippiing the other gears in the motor and then burn the motor up. I just replaced the motor on mine a few months ago.
