83 944 N/A headlight problem
Few days ago I got back from vacation and went for a drive. The headlights would come on but up only partially. I went to see what the problem was and found that the lights would only go up and down if the electrical connection was giggled. I took off the relay/switch with a screwdriver and saw a spark then removed it. I took off the wires next to it to see if they were corroded. I decided to use a small wire brush to clean the connection and made more sparks. I hoped that cleaning them would make a solid connection and the lights then work properly. However the lights didn't. Was the sparking the cause of this? That there was a fuse blown maybe? When I giggle the connection now I can hear a popping noise coming from the relay/switch. I think this is the actual switch completing the circuit but the motor does not even try to move.
Main Problem: The headlights won't come up. They stay at the down position. The lights still come on when the switch is flipped just not the motor.
Could this be a dead motor or a fuse of some sort. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
