Well, something interesting happened this morning. I turn my car on, and i turn the headlights on. My right headlight poped open like normal. My left headlight went about halfway and then just stoped. Now my left light won't go up or down, its just stuck there. There is nothing in the way of it as far as i can see. And the headlight lights up and works. I don't want to force down on it, for that would cause some bad results i think.



The car is a 91 mazda rx7 convertable non-turbo



thanks

check fuses

If you need to, use the adjustment **** underneath to raise and lower the light for now until you find what the problem is.

try to see if it reacts when you turn the ****, i had a grounding problem that made the headlight go up halfway and even when i turned the **** it wouldnt move, if that happens (the motor was hot btw) then just pull the fuse

I found the problem. A screw driver was lodged in the back of the headlight, which prevented it from doing anything. I think when the machanic was flushing my power steering fluid, the screw driver happen to appear or something. In any case, i thought the motor for the headlight was damaged, but after a few off and on flicks, everything is back to normal. i feel dumb now
