Willys Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 Well, I am now getting that annoying buzzing from the headlight adjuster motor continuously trying to adjust. So, it needs to be silenced! I remember somewhere we discussed cutting the power wire for it but can't find that thread? OR can it be done at the light stalk where the adjuster wheel is located? I was hoping to find it before getting the lights and such all out of the car. I am going to permanently fix the level of the beams and call it done. I rarely drive at night any longer so positioning the beams where they do not blind anyone is all that is required. Any help finding that thread or which wire would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Leadwing Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 It is possible that the raise / lower function could be rusted. If you can give it a wiggle to see if it moves freely, that might work. The adjuster motor obviously works, but perhaps it is not shutting off because the headlights were moved (a heavy bump or jar from a pothole maybe) slightly and the adjuster is trying to put things back to where they were originally set. Just thinking outside the box .... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willys Posted January 18, 2023 Author Share Posted January 18, 2023 I have sorted it out, simple....cut the wires off the motor inside the headlight ass. I will adjust them manually from now on. I couldn't find anything anywhere that dealt with some way of mod to stop the motors. I expect there is something that counts revolutions as it spins, one clockwise and another counter-clockwise. Well if the motor can't spin problem solved...lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
