Headlight throw beam adjustment failure

[bayproject1]

Hello all, had my Mini MOT'ed and it failed on headlight alignment. It turns out the passenger side headlight throw beam wont adjust and its stuck in a high position. I bought a new headlight thinking the motor ceased but this still hasn't solved it. The new headlight is fully functioning as I tested it on the other side. Any ideas? Thanks Ben

I have the same problem mate,

Heard if you open the bonnet and close very fast with a slam, this is a temporary fix however after adjusting the level a few times and turning off the lights the problem still returns.

My next step was to buy a set of new headlights, although might give a miss seen as you have tried this method.

Dammm BMW Mini electrics I say!

Any news or results let us know.
