Yeah thats what it is. You can do a search on it and there's a coupla different ways to fix it. The 180 as mentioned befrore works or just get a new gear for it from ebay and rebuid it. You might as well do the drivers side too cause that one prolly on it's way out too.

It's when you take the motor apart and just take the plastic gear and flip it around and put it back in.

take the headlight motor apart and flip the gear around(it's plastic and one side is stripped)...make sure you glue the cover to the motor VERY well or it will fall off....
