So my first gremlin of the year appeared last night....
I turned the lights on, and they flipped up, and all was good. Then I got home and parked it...they turn off, but don't flip back down. I popped the hood, and put them down manually, then tried again. Same thing...up, no down. I scratched my head for a bit, and looked for a fuse that may have gone bad, but didn't see anything. When I was screwing the 'lid' back on the fuse panel (Engman upgrade) I heard them shut. They go on and off just fine now, but I have NO idea what would make them go up, and not back down. Any ideas??? |

please explain the screwed in/down fuse box cover...
And to your problem...you started it after a long time sitting... Get some electrical cleaner...take out the fuses, clean the contacts and the ends of the fuses...should be good to go. I have found that sometimes you need to just twist them in place to get the connection to work. Rich |
