So my headlights stay up .. They don't retrtact.. how do I troubleshoot this situation.? Also only my high beams stay on..? maybe they fugged up the wiring.. but none of it looks tampered with.. or could it be the switch?

it could be the switch, but there is a fuse for the retractors in the under hood fuse box

did you see if they are plugged in?

Follow the wiring harness from the retractor motors, it

goes thru a hole in the radiator support, see if they are both

plugged in, remember its different wiring for the lights and for the

retractors.

yeah its above the light switch

you can take out the fuse and the headlights stay down and when u turn onthe lights it will come out the flash to pass and they lloook kool. Hey does anyone know if those conversion kits for teh sealed beam headlights H6054 are any good. Those are the ones that you can switch to H7 light bulbs i think. Do they improve vision or is it another ricer gimmick?

ahh i never thought of removing the retractor fuse and running with the lights on, this is gonna look tight

Yeah they are plugged in.. I will have to use the light tester to see if the wires are getting power I guess then I will narrow it down to either the switch or the motors.. But why do the high beams stay on?

I dont think that you would get any light out of the FTPs. They arent very big so you light pattern must suck. Can you even see anything?
