Hi Once you had it all put back together have you tried the adjuster that the old underdash controller used.(if that makes sence).I was working on lights yesterday and used this at the end.I will not know if I am successful until the MOT.

The plastic 'nut' part of the adjuster can strip its thread when being freed up after having been seized.
Adjuster may be turning, but it may not be adjusting.
