87 TA Headlight Relays?????
87 TA Headlight Relays?????
How many and where are the headlight relays located on the 87-on two wire headlight motor systems? (Headlights won't pop up. Motors are fine. Replaced the 4 prong relay next to battery. Opened motors...it's not the bearings.)

Looks like this. It's on the drivers side of the firewall next to the brake booster

The mind is like a parachute, it only works when its open
Sorry it is not a relay that controls the headlight motors, it is a module. I know this because my 87 GTA had a engine fire and I had a wiring harness out of a 86 TA and it had the relays. I could not get it to work with the 2 wire motors. So I then removed all of the relays, found the nessacary wires and wired up the module. I think it is mounted up by the brake booster like the picture shows in the last reply. Mine was gone.

Aaron is correct in that it's not a relay (which I forgot to mention, thanks Aaron). One thing tho,, don't expect to find yours where mine is (which is inside the car under the dash). The pic was only to show what it looked like.
