If you're going to inspect the gears you pretty much should plan on replacing them while you're in there.
step 1... remove the four #25 torx that hold on the painted headlight cover.
step 2... There are four 10mm bolts that hold the motor in. Its easier if you have a deep socket and a 1/4" drive...
step 3... Remove motor and pry open the case...
step 4... Remove & Replace gear (make sure your lube properly)
step 5... Epoxy the cover back and reinstall.
They make some brass gears that won't strip etc which is what everyone uses as replacements but I'm not sure where to get them.
