Headlight Problems!!!PLEASE HELP!!

I have been having problems with my Driver's Side Headlight, not sure if this is the right board.

Right now both my headlights will come up and go down.. However, my driver's side headlight motor has been making a weird noise and doesn't come up until about a second or two after the other light and it seems to be weakening quickly. When I look at the "bad" headlight motor with the hood open, it continues to spin (you know, that thing on top of the headlight motor) for a few seconds after they go up and then also when they go down. Another weird thing when this noise with the headlite motor started to occur, now whenever I hit just the parking lights, the headlights come up too..

Have any of you had this same problem??? If so or if you have any experience with this, would the Headlight Repair Kit from Top Down Solutions Help me??

Please let me know any info you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
Will

Performa an archive search for "headlight" and "motor" and you may find lots of similar threads. Without being able to hear/see teh problem, a wild guess is that you may have stripped nylon gears in the actuator.
