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.

 

lol thats ODD. I have had problems with my window motors and windows coming off track. I took it to macco and they fix little things like that for pretty cheap. they fixed a few things like that for me. Just drive down and ask em. They even fixed my wipers. When I turned them off they would go up and stay up. They fixed it though

 

put some contact greese on the headlight motor wires or the motor is going bad. and any clicking noices. i had the same problem on my 94 trans am

It is doing it with both motors and I just replaced the one motor last summer. So grease both wiring harnesses then.

 

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...

 

When the plastic gears start to get chewed up they do that Buy the bronze gears and be done with it I think dorman makes em Oreilly auto parts can get em if the counter person is worth a **** lol My old firebird done that & I replaced both motors Then found out about the bronze gears theyre like 40 a pc BUT they work Used em on my buddies 93 T/A
