I posted this earlier and had no response. The switch on the interior is not the problem, I think.

You said in your other thread the motors make noise? Or do you mean the relays?

the relays were ticking. I think. The motors can be worked to the down position, when I touch the headlight switch they come up, but won't go down. Also when the headlights are rotated down, they respond up when the lights are turned on. I am at a stuck position. I know that I could start replacing parts but that would just cost me more money in the long run.

I have a volt meter and live near him. If you have a wire diagram that could point us in the right direction it would help. colors would be best. Thanks

i dont have any for an 89. but could probably figure it out off of a 93, sure they didnt change much but it wont be what pins you need to look at or which color wire. it will just be along the lines of find ___ part and check for ___ on one of the terminals in the connector type of thing.
