headlight issue

[Nicholass1979]

I'm having an issue with the headlights on my 1994 formula, they go up, but hey don't want to, most of the time when I put them on, I have to go out and smack them to go up, or if I drive long enough or go over a bump they come up, they go up quickly so I think they are 99% mechanically fine, I'm wondering if there is some little part in there that might cause this to happen? maybe something out of allignment?

check all the connections at the headlamp actuator relay.
Should be a black box attached to the side of the front fusebox...in the engine compartment....closest to the radiator...(well it is on my '00 model...I believe the pre 98 was same configuration.)
definitely sounds like an electrical related problem.

an additional thought on this...
do the headlights light up inside while they do not flip up?
If not...it may indicate a switch problem or main power related...
just another idea..
