Headlights?
So my headlights haven’t been working and I’ve been trying to find out why, all the lights are in working condition but none of them light, I’m new with corvettes and I was looking for a fuse but looks like their isn’t one. But I was pulling off a connector to the lights and when I touched my screw driver to the terminals the lights turned on does anyone know why. The side marker lights work and I have a 77

Where did you touch "the connector"? Are you referring to the plug on the rear of the headlight bulbs? If so you might have a disconnected or broken ground wire. A picture or two would help.

Sorry it’s a bad picture but the screw driver is hitting the the right terminal and the bottom of it was in this position _ it hit the middle and right side
yeah the connector on the back of the bulb (the outside light bulb)

Pull the connector off the lamp, clean the lamp terminals and then clean the terminals in the connector.

You may be providing a ground . Like Willcox says clean them all up. Take a meter or test light and hook it to ground and see if yu have 12 volts positive. If so hook it to positive and check for negative voltage
