First listen to see if the motor is running, if not check for +12Vdc on the Red wire into the headlight motor relay on the LH fender well below and to the left of the LH headlight.

If no power on that wire check the fusable link, one of two on the firewall below and to the left of the master cylinder.

If the motor is running, try to move the headlight with the manual ****; does it move the headlight, does it feel firm?
