Hardwiring Headlights

I have a 92 Firebird and the headlight don't go up and down with the normal switch, I know the motors are good, and was wondering if anyone had ideas on how to wire the motors to go up and down. Thanks.

Your motors are controlled by an electronic module near the firewall, I think(don't know exact location, I have a '85 TA with the older style motors). It's probably bad and needs to be replaced. As far as wiring them up- it will be hard since the motors don't have a limit switch or a way to reverse in the motors themselves. Those functions are built into the control module.

Hope this helps some.
