    Default Headlight adjustment cam broken

    Has anyone had an issue with this mechanical cam that adjusts the headlight? Mine is busted, and will not turn; the plastic cam will not extend beyond the black housing portion.

    Is it possible to replace just this cam/housing ?

    I had to glue the little... uhh... housing..? that the adjustment cam rides in.
    It's also possible that you can lube/clean yours.

    Scroll down a bit to see what I did to mine;

    Removal is definitely necessary to do anything to this, if anyone is using this thread in the future. It bayonets into the headlamp housing and a quick turn to the right with a pliers will release it.

    anyway, I think lubing is possible, but i replaced mine with one from a spare 960, the shaft is longer but it works. It was a free fix!
