Started this up and down action in wet weather and
now all the time . Motors on headlight assembly
do not stop, so lights keep going up and down.

Already Tried:
disconnected controllers so I can drive the car. Can't retract the headlights

Hello There,

I would say that because it is both headlight motors are acting the same that we can elimanate the Motors and the retractor relays as they each work independent of the other. That would leave the Headlight Retractor Control Unit which is located under right side of the dash, behind the kick panel.
