73 Headlight-door motor not stoping

["jsadowski" <jsadowski@xxxxxxx>]

The part I have appears to fit only 69 Imperial & 300. It is P/N 2932919. The bars that extend from the doors to the motor fit into the slots on this gear. There are many 73 owner on the list. There must be someone with a parts book that can provide the correct part number for the 73.

you mean there is plastic gear inside the motor, which is broken now, right ?

what words did you use on ebay to look for it ?
Thanks

The nylon gear is stripped. I had that happen with a 69 I used to own. I've seen these come up many times on ebay & purchased a spare for the 69 I presently own.

Hi

The motor to open my concealed headlightdoors works fine when I turn the

lights on and opens the doors.

But if I switch it off, the motor keeps running (doors closing-the little

weel underneath keeps spinning) and

wont stop 'till I disconnect the wires.

After that the doors move up a quarter, like a spring forces them to.

Any ideas how  to fix that ?

Is there an 'end switch' inside that motor, so it 'knows' when to stop ?

Thanks

Nils
