Default Headlight motor

Hi Guys,

I was wondering if anyone might have the schematics for the headlight motor circuit, they can post?

Thanks in advance

Tony

This is just the POWER part of the circuit. If you need the CONTROL part, I will have to do some research..

Hi Bill,

Thanks, I will need the control side and the part that controls the lights as well, I'm getting conflicting opinions on when the doors should flip up and the lights go on.
The schematics will show the truth.

Thanks Again

Tony

Please explain just exactly what your are seeing that leads you to believe that something is wrong..

I have or should I say YOU have access "ONELINE" to the OWNERS MANUAL for your car.. If you need it, let me know... It explains WHAT YOUR CAR is designed to do.

Hi Bill,

My owners manual says, when I put my headlight switch to the park position, the headlight should not rotate up, and it does, but it doesn't say how or if the twilight sentinel affects it.

The light work and all, but it seems redicules for the headlights to flip up when the are not even on.

Thanks

Tony

I don't believe the twilight sentinel should cause the headlights to pop up _without_ also turning them on. It should do both, or neither. If your headlights are popping up when you start the car, but not turning on, something is wrong. (I could be wrong about this.)
