Hello Friends,
 
My Car has been in the body shop since last labor day . 
 
I went to pick up the car and when I tried the headlights they seem to come 
 up fine. When I try to lower the buckets , they are very choppy when 
lowering .  Upon watching ,I noticed that when the buckets come up each bucket is 
about a  half to 3/4 inch higher than the body. 
 
I looked at the sprocket and where it meets the actual headlight motor  
gear the sprocket is on the last notch . I believe this is the issue but I  do 
not know how to adjust .
 
Can anyone tell me how to adjust the headlight bucket movement so when the  
buckets are fully up the sprocket does not land on the last notch. This way 
the  headlight motor gear will not start choppy when lowering because it is 
trying to  catch.
 
Best,
Bob Levitt
