    Manually retract lights

    Hi guys, new to the s13 world and have a bit off what seems a common problem
    The button to puts lights down isn’t doing anything so there stuck up
    I’ve saw lots off possible reasons for this when I searched but my question is, how do you manually put them down ?
    Thanks

    Hi mate, open the bonnet. Next to the headlight, there is a small rubber cover. So on the left headlight. The cover is to the right of the headlight and the left headlight, the cover is to the left of it. Pull off the covers and wind the plastic screw down. You will see when you start to turn it which way the head lights want to go so you will know if you need to turn it right or left.

    do they not go up and down if you flash the main beams?

    check all the fuses in the engine bay boxes.

    Check the earthing points. Had the same issue with mine and a good clean of the earths sorted it

    Also worth checking the connections inside the multiplug. They are known for getting gummed up with crud because of rainwater etc. A good clean out with electrical contact cleaner and some white lithium grease was enough to get mine working again
