64 Headlight Problem
Hi All
I just got my 64 the other day and the headlights light up but they don't spin around. Never having worked on a C2 before, I'm not sure where to start looking for the problem. Could sure use your help on this one, Thanks.

you must first determine if you have a motor problem or a circuit/wiring/or breaker problem. first, listen for any headlight motor sounds while someone else operates the headlight switch. put your hand on a motor and try to feel any motor motion. if a motor grunts, the circuit is good. if the motor is silent, check voltage to motor by unplugging connector (it has an internal tit) and using voltmeter from either female to ground while someone operates switch back and forth. if you have current, either motor or ground is the problem (ground wires might be disconnected) be sure to use correct length screws. if you do not have voltage, post results and we can go further.
