Volvo 480 Pop Up Headlights stuch down

Nov 30, 2005 2 Replies

Hi. The headlights on my 480 work but are stuck down, any possible solutions greatfully accepted ?!!! The fuse appears to be ok, is there a relay for them or maybe a way of winding them up permanently ? cheers


There is a mechanical winder for positioning of the headlamps, difficult to reach but useable.

All the best, Peter.

thanks for that - i found that and wound them up, then turned the ignition on and they went down again ! i then removed the fuse once they were wound up and they noy stay up. a few other things dont work with the fuse out which is a bit of a pain but better than no lights ! any idea where the relay is that controls the lights ? thanks Richard
