This is weird i woke up this morning to find my headlights up then when i try to put them down manually since they won't go down it keeps kicking back when i try cracking them down what does this mean?

 

Did you unplug them before trying to manually lower them?

 

switch on consol

 

project7 is correct. With power applied, they will keep doing up. If you disconnect the positive battery cable, you can remove the black plastic piece on top of the headlight motor and manually spin them down. Sometimes, just removing power will also reset them so they can be cycled with the headlight stalk control or the headlight up switch.

 

I got it had to disconnect the battery now i need to figure out how to fix the headlights so they go down by themselves.

 

Hey Cody59 did you figure out how to get the lights to go down on their own? My car was sitting for many years and I just got it running this month. Today I turned on the lights for the first time since getting the car running and now the lights stay up?

 

It was awhile ago i think i just disconnected the battery turned them down manually then when i turned the power back on they worked fine. But that car was a pos i got rid of that one and now and a very nice 79 gs.

 

The headlight wiring diagram is pretty simple. Test your headlights individually and make sure they go up and down on their own, then make sure you are getting power to the motors. Should not be too difficult to troubleshoot. Do you have the wiring diagram?

Good luck.

Thanks for the responses guys! I appreciate it, however I forgot that I had unplugged the switch that raises the headlights. Once the switch was plugged back in the lights went down as they should.
