1984 Gold Coupe
Hi, Just bought what's left of a 1984 Corvette coupe. So I am sure I will be posting a lot and want to thank you all ahead of time. First problem is the headlights of course. When I got the car the lights were up and the wires were disconnected. As soon as I pluggged the wires in the lights rotated shut but will not re-open. Should I be checking for an electrical problem or is this in the gears or bushings that I read about in other posts? If it's electrical where is the first place to check?
Thanks
Jim
