Mr2 Mk3 Headlight Won't Pop Up!

[Gregv2701]

Hi all.

New to the world of MR2!

Now own a 1995 2.0GT MR2, and usual problem... Headlight won't pop up!

To further complicate matters... The manual knob on the back of the light doesn't seem to work. It seems to turn fully clockwise like its tightening, but does not move the headlight at all.

Any ideas of what the problem is/best fix for it?

Many thanks,

G

Could be a fuse ? or the motor has gone ,does the other side work ?

have you rremoved the cover on the manual knob ,? what colour is it ,red or black ?

Oh and MK3s dont have pop up lights ,you mean rev3

Hi,

Checked fuse - all ok.

The other side works fine, no hitches on drivers side at all.

The cover is off, and the knob is on show. The manual knob works fine on the other side, just not on this light?

Apologies about the mk3 part.. Most cars are mk's.. Will remember rev3 from now on though.

Thank you

can you hear the motor working on that side ? could be the link arm has come adrift ?
