Default key fob and headlight issue.....

Yesterday my car started having this problem.....when I use the key fob to lock or unlock my doors the headlight come up and then go down, but the lights don't come on. If I use the key fob to open the hatch it works fine and the door locks work fine too. Does anyone know what this could be and how to fix it? Any help would be great!!

Headlight gear motor, Just changed mine this weekend. Do a search theres a lot of info on swapping the gear instead of the whole motor. Its a cheap fix, dont sweat it.
