Headlight malfunction
The driver side headlight on my 1984 Corvette does not work properly. When I operate the headlight switch, the passenger side opens and turns on. The driver side does not open. I think it may simply be out of alignment and rubbing the hood, but I am not sure. Can anyone give me a rudimentary lesson on how to make sure the electrical connections are all working? :eek:

Re: Headlight malfunction (efweber)
Look at the headlight covers to be sure that the screw on each side has not backed out and is hitting the body. Next, swap the RH door relay with the LH door relay and see if the LH headlight will open. If it does, you have bad relay. If it doesn't open, check for 12v on the green wire on the headlight motor, white wire is negative, with the headlight sw on. If you have 12v, then trouble is in the motor.
