WHY 2000 C5 DRIVERS SIDE HEADLIGHT STAYS UP SOMETIMES? Just replaced my 2000 c5 coupes drivers side headlight motor. After pulling old "OEM" motor i discovered nothing was bad. systoms were motor would not go down sometimes only on drivers side. All was well w/new motor til 3 mo. later it start doing same thing. I unpluged motor wiring harness to do electrical diagnosis w/schematic, all elec. values pan out. I manually lowered the hdlite back to off position. As off this labor day 2024 our club did a road trip to a picnic where we all used our headlights due to holiday safety. After reaching our destination my drivers side hdlite stayed up. HELP,HELP,HELP!
