Pop up headlight doors do not come up and I have no volts to the acuator motors. Are there control moduals for them and where are they located if so?

Both motor fuses were blown after replacing them both doors opened but they will not close. Thinking the control modual may have a problem, but I dont have time today to find and test it.

Have you checked the headlight harnesses for damage?They get damaged from you going up and down. Atleast for the headlight bulb anyways. Have you located the headlight light module yet?I have seen a few of those go bad over the years.

Have not located the door motors module yet. Took the air cleaner box out hoping to see it. Iguess I will have to take the tire off and well shield to see it.

Age they go bad eventually like anything explains why both fuses were blown let me find you a wire diagram. Also finding a module for that might be challenging. Let me do some looking around.
