stock s13 headlights not in sinc.

My headlights are not in sinc, my right one goes down slower than the left one. when i close my headlights, they do the "wave".. is there something wrong with them? is this something i can fix myself?

Thanks in advance,

i'm planning to fix this tomorrow, so any input would be great! thanks

it's cause you cut the brown wire. Or someone else did. Pull out your pop up headlight button and fix it.

They're calling you a ricer because most people cut it in order to do the "sleepy eyes" thing.

I havent touched anything yet, and i doubt the brown wire was cut already. i bought it from an old lady.

I want to do this the right way, now just cutting a wire.

Look into buying a motor like they said. or try searching if you don't want people giving you a tough time, i'm sure a topic like this has been covered multiple times

yeah.....which is why he should search.

i've been doing shit tons of searching lately to fix small problems i've been having and it can take a while to find the right thread. i'm getting sick and tired of seeing you pansy marys whine about searching.

searching here is not like saying "hey how do i fix this"....you have to search with different terminology because different people use different terms.

some people here are educated, some others are not educated, so you may even have to spell what you're searching for the wrong way. BUT if you search for your problems with different combinations of your problem such as "broken headlight motor" "slow motor" "pop up motor" "failing headlight motor".

you have to be creative.

Thanks, i found out that the motor is fine. i needed to reset the bar thats connected to the motor that pushes the light up. because the light goes up a little before it goes down.
