Headlights dont go up or down

[92vert240]

Before the search police yell at me, i did a search and still nothing I changed the 4 relays in the engine bay, tried the regular headlight switch, manual switch on he dash and the brights. None of them open the lights.

I ran a power wire to the motor connection and the driver light cycled up and down up and down. The pass. light went up and stayed there. I checked the fuses by the driver foot fuse panel and theres only one that has anything to do with headlights and that was good. Also checked the two 15A ones in the engine bay behind the battery.

When i flip any of the 3 actions to raise the headlights, i hear the relays clicking but no motor action in the light. What the heck is going on here? I have a parts car so i can swap anything over no problem. Thanks, tyler

I can almost guarentee that not my problem. Im getting power out to the relays in the engine bay and still nothing. Even tho the motors worked w/ power hooked directly up to them, im going to pull one off the other car and see what happens.

[roadboy240sx]

you and me have the same problem, and to save you some time i already tried that, it dose nothing.

i went out and got the raceoun usa headlights.,

but im gonna give that a try tho, ya never know.

i have replaced everything, all my relays are good fuses and everything and they still dont work.

Ok. Did your car sit for a while by any chance? Mine sat for about 3 years. Do you hear your relays clicking when you put the headlight switch on or the other button to flip em up? Maybe working together we can figure this thing out!!! Thanks.

Also, where are ALL the fuses located?

[roadboy240sx]

no mine broke while doing the youtube sleepy eye, but we both have the same problems, ya my relays click when i hit the switch,

there is only the 2 in the bay that i know of and all my relays and fuses i have replaced, still nothing.

also do your light turn on and off? mine do they just dont go up or down

here is an old pic (back when they worked)

no mine broke while doing the youtube sleepy eye...

Same here. Is it possible to do this zerothread/280461 but with the "up and down" button?Bc I think that's where my problem is.The Button.

nope i tried that and it still didnt work, (Not the light controll/stalk button on the stering coulom, but the other one on the left)

i was testing my sleepy eyes, i used short wires and left the switches in the bay, to show them off, for a friend, and i put my hand down on one of the switches and it sparked. thats how mine broke

Mine do turn on and off just dont go up. Not even a sound of the motor trying. The motors work as i said befor when i hooked a hot lead right up to them.

Dude wtf is w/ the V8 lol

[92vert240]

Does anyone have a wireing diagram of the headlight circuit? I can test w/ a meter and see where the problem is.. Mine didnt brake from doing anything. The car just sat for while and now they dont work.

[roadboy240sx]

and the V8 turbo+NOS was done to one up my friend who sent me a pic with a v8 can sittin on his grandam motor.

ahh here have some fun for a few zerothread?id=388214

This is so aggrivating. Nothing like spending 6 months putting a s14 SR in my s13 and being stopped by the damn headlights.

same.I was trying to figure out which was the one that controls the heads lights and bam, a spark flew out of the terminal.when i turned on my lights they lit, but stayed down.so i pressed the button and they went up but stayed up.what the hell?!

[92vert240]

Well i didnt have any sparks or anything. They just stopped working.

I think we need a little motivation here cuz im about to just drop it off at Nissan. $20 paypal to the person who diagnoses my problem. WITH JUST reason. I dont wanna hear, fill the tires up, and they magically work .

[roadboy240sx]

im still looking there is hope i think its a burnt ground some where

[92vert240]

FIXED IT!!!!!!!!!!!

Turned out it was 2 things.

1: There is a 25 amp fuse in that box behind the battery, Labeled MTR CNTRL or something close to that. Its a fuse where you can see copper element inside. My fuse was not even there for whatever reason i may have taken it out years ago for something.

Then the headlights went down but only the right one came up.

2:Even tho the light would cycle up and down when a hot lead was connected to it, from sitting, there must have been corrosion in that one spot on the motor contacts. Switched out the motor and everything works as it should!!! So happy. Hope this helps some of you other guys out!!!

[roadboy240sx]

hmm il look again but all my fuses were good ,

its to cold
