The head lights go up and down by vaccum canisters. If the canisters go bad on the down side then they will go up but wont go donw. If you look up front in front of the radiator you will see to goldish round canisters those are what goes bad. RJ Sottile www.hobbycarcorvettes.net

Why dont the lights go down on your 1977 corvette?

The headlights require a vacuum to operate down. If there is no vacuum they remain in the up position. You may have a vacuum leak such as a disconnected or broken vacuum line. I have also seen the vacuum reservoir can rotted out and unable to hold a vacuum.


Are the headlights on an 1985 corvette vacuum or electric left one goes down but not up?

The lights are electric. Check to see if the gears in the motor are chewed up, if they aren't then the problem exists elsewhere. I've been having the same problem.

1975 corvette headlights won't go down?

Engine must be running when you turn the light off- lights are operated from a vacuum system. There is also an "override" switch located at the base of the steering column. If this switch has been activated- then your lights will not go down. This switch was provided by G.M. for Vettes being outside in freezing temperatures. G.M. advised that the "override" switch be activated and the headlights would remain in their upright position on these cold nights. Switch is activated by pulling down or pushing up.
