Noise after turning off headlights / parking lights
When I turn off my head lights or even just the parking lights there is a clicking noise somewhere under the hood.
Quite noticeable maybe 5-10 clicks. Anyone have any idea what that is? Is it normal? Thanks.

Re: Noise after turning off headlights / parking lights
It could be the headlight motor starting to go. open the hood and have a friend turn youhead light on then off . you should be able to locate the noise from that . hope that helps.

More than likely not the motor, but the actual gear iteself or also the bushings may have deteriorated.
