My left headlight door will not open all the way. I need to get s state inspection Is there any way to lock the headlights open. On my old c3 there was a **** under the dash that would lock both lights open.
Oh it is a 90.
Thanks for any ideas.

I'm not positive it's the same as my 86, but under the hood look on the bottom of the headlight motor and mine has a **** with a spring clip that holds it in place, pop the spring clip turn the **** and you should be able to manually open the door, oh I think you'll need to disconnect motor wires (gray connector) after you get it open pop the spring clip back over **** and you should be good to go.
Does the motor keep running on the side that doesnt go up all the way? You may have stripped gears. They're expensive (for what they are) and a pain to replace, but its something you can DIY.
