    Guys need some more advice. Something stupid happened I washed my car in the winter, My garage was semi warm, but not cold when the car was in there. Went there today, started the car, turned up the front headlights, then I put them down, and one stuck. Its not going down, its the driver side one. So I went and manually turned the knob to take it down. What do you think happened, a short maybe, blew a vuse.

    Possibly a fuse. Check them in the front trunk, under the cover on the drivers side. Use your owners manual for instruction. The fuses for each motor are 7.5 amp. It is not unusual in winter, as these motors age, that they draw more current and will blow a fuse. Some have swapped them out for a 10amp with no ill effects. I suppose you could remove the motor and regrease it and clean it up.

    I ended up replacing fuse numbers 1 and 2. Sure enough up and down go the lights.
    Thx
