I fixed the title for you.

Did the motor fail completely or does it grind?
Did you check to make sure its getting power?
Check the two 15AMP headlamp door fuses in the fuse block in the engine bay.

do the permanent headlights up mod. the car looks better too. crank them up manually then pull the fuses.

Thanks.

It is intermittent.

It doesn't grind or anything but will occasionally stay up.

It hasn't been going down for over a week but tonight it started working like normal.

So I figure just get a motor and put it in.

Love the car so far though.

I also need to get another QTE cutout as mine no longer opens. Not sure how long previous owner had it on car. Different issue though, not concerned with.

I'd say swap out the gear in the motor. You just got a warning with that. One day it'll take a dump and you'll be pissed!

are you saying that 4th gen firebirds look better with the headlights up?...

98Bird

interesting. I'd personally never do that but whatever floats your boat right?

Get the BRASS gear as the plastic gears will continue to wear out. Brent Franker sells the brass gears.


His name comes up under Yahoo search (bfranker.xxxxx is the link you want to click).
Or HINT, you can look up the properties of the pic I posted.

What's more important is where the rear tires of the car in front of you are. If you can't see their tires, you are too close. No need to drive the car with the lights up, KNOW YOUR CAR!!!

98Bird

no, i don't mean i need the headlights up for tailgaiting people.

more like for parking in underground garages, in front of high curbs, concrete strips, etc....i've also got an SSRA....and the scoop hangs pretty low. the headlights up does help my estimation better.

I also have the SSRA and no popups and manage just fine. If you don't want to scrape the front, back into the spot instead. Just takes practice and time knowing where the front end of the car is.

After driving these cars for awhile your depth perception adjusts a lil and you just know how far is gonna be too far!

Or you can keep moving forward until the car stops then you'll know that you're there.
