No limiter switch to adjust. The headlamp control module uses current sensing to sense when the light has reached it's travel limits. Your plastic gear is stripped within the motor housing. Crack open the housing and reposition the plastic gear 180 degrees. Only half of the gear is used, and by flipping it, you'll be using the fresh teeth and the motor will function as new.

That happens when the gears get stripped. You can do the free mod which just rotates the gear to the unused half or replace it with a brass gear.

Brass gears are near the top of the page.
