All the lights work; side markers, low beams, high beams the driver and passenger headlights popup fine, the problem I'm having is my passenger headlight wont go down?
I tried plugging my passenger headlight motor into the drivers side and the motor works fine (the spindle rotates when turning on and off the headlight)
I know the headlights use three relays: the blue one under the dash, the black one behind the glove box, and the one behind the battery.
My question is; are the passenger and driver headlights controlled by separate retractor relays? if so which one controls which head light???
This is the exact problem my car is having

Re: Parking brake lever and headlight question.
I'm guessing that you can't get the parking brake out of the car because the cable is attached ?
The parking brake is attached to the two main cables at a divider which is attached to the single cable with the nut on that is inside the car. This single cable is quite short maybe 12" and to get to the divider you will need to go under the car. The cable just hook into the divider. Once you have unhooked the cables the parking brake will just lift out with the short cable still attached and all you need to do is remove the two adjuster nuts and pull the cable through the parking brake mechanism.

Yea, I couldn't get the brake out because the cables attached, I thought I had to unscrew the 10mm bolt next to the lever but turns out thats the adjustment bolt hahaha.
Thanks for the reply I'll check on the brake first thing in the morning
