Guys I need help!!

I was driving my FD today, it started raining hard.

When I go switched on my headlight I found out my headlights did not pop up.

The parking lamp and instrument lights did come on, just no headlight.

I then push the headlight retractor switch, the headlights popped up, but still no light.

What could be the cause of this? Please respond as soon as possible this is quite frustrating.


Thanks in advance!

 

Is there a section on them in the manual? I do not have mine here at work.

 

which manual are you talking about? the owner's manual? or the shop manual?

 

Check your fuses first.

 

Voodoo. This Exact same thing happened to me about a month ago. I did a search on this forum and someone else had the same thing happen too. Mine happened on the passenger side and THE ONLY thing I had to do was turn on the lights...open the hood...and shake the harness that goes into the lights. I read about that here on the forum and immediately went outside and did it. Wella !!.....soon as I shook the harness the light popped up came to life and has worked perfectly since. Let me know if this works for you.

 

thanks to all you guys, I finally figured out the problem with the lights. The retractor relay was damaged from water. I took it out and put the H270 relay from the A/C and the light worked again.

 

How were you able to deduce water damage?

 

i moved the bracket for the retractor relay to mount my TEC2 years ago. The relay itself was hanging upside down. It has been raining quite often lately and the water filled the relay cap and rusted everything inside, finally it stopped working... I took the cap off and the internal were full of nasty brownish sticky stuff.
I looked in the relay box and found out the A/C h270 relay are 4 pin relay also, and I used it to replace the retractor relay and test it out, then the lights worked again!
