flil up headlight problems

Okay I have a 1985 transfer am. I purchased new rebuilt headlight motors for it. The motors are properly rebuilt and have good power. I have replaced all the relays in the head lights. There were three of them. So the head lights turn on but do not flip up or down. The fuses are all good. I do not know what else to replace and do not know what in the hell is wrong please help!

I had my left headlight sticking, I cleaned the ground and that seemed to work.

Occasionally it still sticks, but popping the hood usually fixes it.(for whatever reason)

Sounds like a ground loss to the relays.
