So heres the deal. I performed the sleepy eye light controller mod as seen on video option. Everything went great and I had it fully functional so I left it alone for a couple hours and came back to clean up the wires. As I working on it i thought i smelled a burning smell in the radio area but i didnt give it much thought because it quickly went away. few moments later i tested it one more time and it didnt work.......now the light either go up or down even if i manually press the button....HOWEVER i do hear a relay clicking in the left relay box.i though i blew a relay on the relay box on the passenger side but i switched with my friends and his worked fine so that cancels that. theres got to be somethign wrong on the relay box on the passenger side because it was the only area i was messing with. Please help!
so key points.
performed sleepy eye light controller and worked beautifully ...for a while
NOW:lights don't pop up or retract at all even manually pressing the button (when everythign was put back to normal)so this is unlike most headlight problem threads.
most likely soemthing wrong with the relay box as shown in the video...
can't understand wiring diagrams so im basically useless but i do have a multimeter.

double check your wireing, if its loose the connection will be bad and cause it not to work.

Re: (kevtrinh)
Update:
We got the relays to work but now the wires to the headlamp motors are not getting any power... i'll double check the fuses again but any help is appreciated.

Re: (kevtrinh)
another update:
i pinpointed to pin 6 on the h/l ret relay not getting any power....so there is somethign wrong with the circuit....where is the headlight timer circuit located?
