Reply to "Headlight covers"

It could be the Micro limiting switch that limits how far open the covers/doors go. It is located at the TOP, and far Left(LH drivers) CORNER of the RADIATOR. The switch should have the curcuit "Closed" when the doors are down. Then after the motor opens the doors, the switch is hit by the actuating gear, "opens" the curcuit and the motor stops. Imagine what would happen if the switch was missed. You can test this switch by using a jumper wire across the TWO wires leading to it's contacts. Your problem could also be in the "Headlight Door" RELAY, located behind the access door at the Drivers left leg, on most models. OR/AND in the wireing in between. Also! It could be as simple as the fuse, BLOWN or just LOOSE in corroded contacts. Good-Luck. Marlin. P.S. Since the doors will lower, we know the Motor is NOT burned-out. You might check to see if any wires have come off the back of the headlight Switch.
