Default C4 Headlight Motor/Actuator - Common Fix - Video

Guys, I have been hanging out in the C5 forum for several years - but I recently repaired a Fiero Headlight Actuator which I believe is the same as the 88-96 Corvette headlight motor actuator.
I have done this repair several times over the past decade to various cars and it has held up well!

If you are having headlight issues with the motor spinning but the headlight not moving - this may be your fix.

Thanks!
Toys.

Except on the passenger side, you don't have to remove the motor to repair.

Good to know and thanks for the comment!


Perhaps the way the C4 Corvette headlights operate, the motors are on opposite sides vs. the Fiero.
