I noticed that when I drove to work this morning, and parked. The driverside headlight bucket must be clogged, and the rain water has frozen solid. When I turned the headlights off to go into work, the headlight is raised about 1 inch. It will not close all the way due to the ice block beneath.
Is the motor still energized trying to close the headlight???? If it is I am sure it will kill the battery by the time I get off in 10 hours. PLEASE LET ME KNOW. if it is going to kill the battery, should i pop them up, pull the relay from that side and then shut them off.
