1996 Firebird Headlight Trouble
Any thoughts on why my wifes passenger side headlight on her '96 Firebird makes a very loud noise when she closes the door? This has been going on for quite some time and sounds as thought the motor that closes the door continues running for 5 seconds after the door closes. Since she dosen't drive much at night it hasn't been too annoying. but it's starting to bug me and her.

Needs a headlight motor. Fairly common problem.

Try the free fix first (run on other side of gear)

This was so easy, I couldn't believe it! I wonder how many people have been told they
need a new motor? Thanks again.
