Headlights partially open

So my headlights don't open any more than 1/4 of fully open and I can hear the motors running for a few seconds after they are open or fully closed. I have to manually pull them open if i want to drive with them on. What is the cause of this issue ad how do I fix it? Also how do I fix the high beam switch so it works without having to put the steering wheel all the way down?

Re: Headlights partially open

sounds like the motors need rebuilt or replaced. as far as the switch i let the electrical gurus chime in.
