your achilles heel with the 3rd gen headlight motors is the 3 nylon "pucks" that go inside the back of the drive gear. They usually oval out, or crumble into dust, or both.

If your headlights were to go bad, "Topdown Solutions" offers a rebuild kit for like 40 bucks. I used it on my 91 when my headlight motor went bad. If you can find a good hardware store, buy 6 15/32 ball bearings (3 for each). Toss them in with some grease and never worry again.

When its time to rebuild them, they will keep trying to spin for a few more seconds even thought they are up or down all the way
