Do you hear the motor turning? The gear could be worn out. Have someone turn the headlights off and on while you are standing next to it. What do you hear and feel?

theres a plastic gear thats probably shredded. If you hear the motor then thats the problem. They sell replacements that wont fail. GM will want to charge 500 for a new motor..... get someone else to install that gear if the motors fine.
