Headlight motor turning wrong direction
Hey I just used the headlight motor rebuild kit from topdownsolutions and the passenger side light is going good, up and down fine. The drivers side however is turning the wrong direction. I turn headlights on, it goes down. I turn them off, it goes up. Any suggestions? Thanks

I dont remember reversing them but its possible. Where would be an easy spot to switch the wires?

Cool, well if not soldered together you might at least use crimp connectors so they keep working. Have fun!
