Actuator for vehicle headlight

The actuator has a support plate (3) for supporting multiple LEDs and mounted relative to a housing (2) around a pivot (10). A tilting actuation system (4) comprises a screw-nut system. A direction actuation system (5) comprises a motor with a rotor (17), where the rotor comprises a wheel portion (30) and a rotary element (19). The plate is mounted on the rotary element that comprises a wheel portion (29) engaging with the wheel portion of the rotor for angular displacement of the rotary element in a direction orthogonal to an axial direction of movement of a screw (14) of the tilting system. The wheel portion of the rotor is designed as a cogwheel portion.
