headlight problems
This is my first post been lurking for a couple years,bought a white 99 vert last sept.now its starting to have a few issues replaced windshield motor last month with help from a friend who did most of the work,now its the headlights won't go up or down searched the forum am pretty sure its the headlight control module or dirty connection,Question is do I order a used one off of e-bay or get a new one.searched the forum for a how to do this like you have for replacing the gears in the motors but it didn't bring one up,I have a service manual its pretty vague, I am not a mechanic an I don't want to pay the dealer $500.00 to do something I can do myself.Thanks for any help you can give me.

Billy, is it both headlights that will not raise or lower?
If so, first thing to check is fuse #6 in the passenger footwell. Its not marked as having anything to do with the lights but it can affect the motors. If its only one of them, the fuses are in the underhood box 8,9,10 & 12.
