My mom just called me with an odd problem with her 2004 - one of her headlight buckets suddenly started working in reverse. When the lights are on, one bucket is up and one is down. When the lights are turned off, the up bucket goes down and the down one pops up about half way. She was going to manually try to even them out but she's almost 80 so don't hold out much hope for her being able to turn that **** enough times. Any idea what the problem might be?

Most probable bump stops worn out. Easy and very cheap fix with basic tools and alittle time. Google. Wow, I am happy to hear your mom is still driving and a "CORVETTE" on top of it!!! God bless her. Congratulate her from myself on behalf of the Corvette forum. I pray I will still be driving a Corvette at her age. Cheers, Rob

Thanks, Rob. Mom loves her Vette. It takes her a while to get out of it but she drives it whenever she can. Thanks for the advice on the bump stops. I'll take a look at them when I visit for dad's 80th next month. I also have to show them how to program the bluetooth and satellite radio in dad's new truck. I get the feeling my folks are trying to spend my inheritance.
