Headlight stuck!!
Came home last night from work, turned lights off and the driver's side stopped about 75% of the way down. It was too dark to look into it at the moment and I have Begi's cool air box covering that area so I can't see anything under the light/lightmotor anyway. This morning I go to start the car and get a couple half-hearted cranks and then nothing. Is it possible the headlight is jammed somehow and the motor was trying to close it all night, draining the battery? The light will not go up either. When I take this **** apart tomorrow what should I be looking for?

Well I found out what happened. I'm an idiot. I left an 11mm socket under the hood which managed to get wedged right underneath the arm of the headlight. Also found a miniature screwdriver I was missing while I was under there too.
