I searched and didn't see this specific issue up on here already, and I already searched on BFranker about the free head light fix, but here's my issue:
My passenger side head light now won't raise, but I don't hear the typical grinding noise as if the gear teeth have been stripped. In fact, I don't hear anything at all coming from the motor over there and had my dad stick his head next to it while I turned the lights on and off to raise and lower them and see if he heard anything either, but nothing. Now, I'm pretty sure that if the teeth had stripped, I'd hear it grinding away and I could just spin the gear 180 degrees like BFranker suggests. But if I hear nothing, then did the motor itself die on me? Is there something else I can check to verify it's possibly not the motor? I already checked the fuses and they're all good.
