Headlight motors
When I turn off my headlights, there is a clicking sound even after the headlights are fully closed. When only the parking lights are turned on the clicking sound is also heard when they are turned off even though the headlight motors should not have been energized.

Re: Headlight motors
I was afraid of that. The headlights still extend and retract but the gears must be damaged. Corvette Central, here I come.

Re: Headlight motors
It's a quick and easy job. I just did it on my godson's '90. I got the gears at VettePros here in Charlotte which is quite local for me.

Re: Headlight motors
Gears and or pellets in the motors need to be rebuilt.

Re: Headlight motors
Thanks, guys. This looks like a good candidate for a winter project. I never drive this car at night anyway.
