Headlight question on a 93 Firebird. I am having a problem with our 93 Formula. The headlights sometimes do not pop up. The light is on just not up, I play with the switch and nothing, then I can go outside and tap on the headlight and it pops up. It has done this a couple of times this year. It has also gone on by playing with the switch. Is it a headlight switch going bad.

mine did this when the motor was going bad...sometimes Id have to go crank it open by hand under the hood then it would close on its own and usually work for a little bit. After replacing motor it was good to go...
