The lights turn on and off as they should, highbeams work etc but the headlights are always up. The motors are fine because I disconnected the battery and manually retracted them, as soon as I reconnected the battery the headlights popped up (with the headlight switch in the off position). I'm assuming the problem is in the switch but would it be a relay? I've tried searching and from what I've gathered the relay solves the problem of the headlights not popping up but I don't know about not retracting. Also the retractor fuse is fine. oh and it's an '88 so the relay on ICEmark's site says 86-87 so I don't know what to do.

 

Did you check the little switch above the main headlight one? If it is in the up position it will do exactly what you are describing.

 

yeah check the actuator switch... same problem with me...

 

lol I feel like an idiot that was it. It's been like that for months, thanks!
