Default Headlight problem

Hey guys I have a friend that has a 1991 vette and his headlight have stopped going up and down. I've read in a few places that most of the time its just the bushings?? Is this true? and where can he get some? First post over in this section!

Thanks

Tom

I think you'd find a lot of info if you did a search. I'm sure someone has had the same symptoms as you and made a post about it.

It is a very easy fix. The bushings are about $5.00 from any of the vette parts houses, per side. There is a paper in the "Tech Tips" section of this forum that hits the nail on the head on "how to". The bushing come with some simple instruction also.

Any chance he got the engine compartment wet. If the Headlamp Control Module gets wet the headlights will not go up and down. Unfortunatly I fried mine the first month I had my car. I sprayed down the engine compartment then my headlights would not work.
