2nd generation problems!

I have an 87 n/a and for some reason the right headlight no longer goes up! Worked great up untill the other day than all of a sudden no more! Is there a way to raise the lights manually until i can fix the problem? And does anyone know the problem?


Thanks

i would first check all electrical connections to make sure the motor is getting power.........if it is, ebay a headlight motor. I dont think there is a manual way to raise the light fixture.

Had the same problem. It was the plug in the harness. It did not connect properly. See if that is the problem. Have not had amy problems since.

yeah there is a **** right under the headlight assembly to manually crank them up, but yeah those headlight motors go from time to time and they are not too expensive if you find them off the forum or ebay.
