My passenger headlight for my trans am stopped coming up when I flip the switch. The motor itself fails to operate. I know it's a good motor because I've taken it off and put it on the driver side of the car and it operates perfectly, no grinding or anything. I've checked the headlight fuse and it seems to be fine as well. I've looked all over the Internet trying to find a solution and so far have had no luck. Can someone please help me out or at least point me in the right direction.

 

Have you checked the headlight module? I don't remember where it's located.

 

Corrosion on the electrical terminals for the motor connector is a common thing for this.

 

x2 for corrosion... it happened on my 98... ordered pigtail from amazon and soldered it in... took about an hour and a half... worked fine ever since
