Just showing off the new S2 Turbo to my Mum, when I switched the lights on the off side headlamp refused to pop up, although the light inside did turn on.
After a couple of lights on/off the headlamp did come up, but now refuses to go down. Both lamps work fine, it's just that one wants to stay out day and night now.
DAN12, here is a write-up on repairing the unit (if it is indeed broken inside and not just an electrical problem):

Consider yourself lucky it died in the up position... although it can be rotated wherever you want using the motor's knobby & pehaps a little human persuation
