I’m putting together a 1988 Firebird and I’m working on getting the headlights to pop up. I put brand new motors on but the switch won’t work. I traced the wires to this plug. Could someone post a picture of what plugs in here? Any info to help would be appreciated. TIA
Welcome to TGO, the link below is a good resource for wire diagrams some of which are Camaro specific but a lot will apply to Firebirds as well. AustinThirdGen.Org
If yours is missing and if your sourcing it from a salvage yard or eBay the following car use the same headlight door module
GM part #16525685
Buick: Reatta (1990-1992)
Olds: Toronado/Trofeo (1990-1992)
Pontiac: Firebird (1990-2002), Sunbird (1990-1994)

The search function on this site is a great source of information.
Hi Bandit, you have posted the wrong wiring diagram. The OP is working on a 1988, which uses the single module to control the headlight doors, which is the diagram I posted in the first response to his question. The diagram you posted is for the earlier design which uses 3 separate relays, and was last used in 1986. I'm not nit picking here, but we owe it to the OP and to future readers of this thread to get it right

If it’s wrong it’s wrong, thanks for the correction.
