ReQ 07-29-2006 11:11 PM

i checked the faq and searched, didnt find anything



this isnt a sleepy eye mod or the like, when i got my S4 the right headlight wasnt going down all the way, it sticks up a bit more than the left, higher than the front bumper edge, not a big deal... but when i turn them on... they both pop up fine but when the right headlight goes up, it falls down about and inch, not only is it very noticeable to look at, the light shines to alittle low



i know pulling the fuse and turning the knobs doesnt work because when i put the fuse back its just going to pop back up, atleast i believe so, either way.. how do i fix this?







for the electrical part, the problem is my a/c, i think its the control in the dash, a/c works fine but when i slide the fan control over alittle, its automatically on max, its either wide open or off. the lights on the buttons work when they want too... but some of the buttons dont work, the recycle buttons seem to.. but none of the vents do, push them and the lights might come on, but it doesnt blow out the vents



someone pulled the glovebox and rigged up a rod on something, push it up and it blows out the front main vents, pull down and it blows out the floorboard vents, the rod just lifts and drops alittle plastic door behind vents, i can see it because the dash bezel is gone with the vents



will replacing the a/c controls fix it?

the headlight question; the inch of play or so is most likely a bad bushing on one of the rods. the bushings come with the rods.



if it doesnt sit right, its bent or out of adjustment, the lid and the mechanism are seperate, and can be adjusted if need be.



ac; sounds like the controls are just bad, and someone bypassed em

ill look into the headlight more, turning the white knob on the bottom doesnt help, always goes right back to the original position when i put the fuse back, thats not my biggest concern



i found out more about the logicon thing, i found a link on how to fix it yourself, its a nice little pdf tutorial



i cracked mine open and pulled the board out, found burnt spots on it so idont think it can be fixed, anyone know where to find a new one cheap? besides ebay ofcourse

ReQ 08-03-2006 08:15 PM

i found a place to buy a logicon cheaper, i think anyway



http://www.mazdamark.com/Logicon.htm has them for $85-95 (sold out)



they have the "ultraviolet" logicon for $90 in stock... only thing is, im not sure if its just the faceplate or if its the whole thing, everything on mine is fine but the circuit board



any suggestions or experience with them?
