White Comet

for starters, before i get blasted by it, i searched all last night and have tried almost everything i can think of.

The Problem
after doing my extensive wire tucking and relocating i went about testing the electrical system. everything so far works fine with the exception of this one problem. the headlights will light up but still remain in the down position, illuminating the ground beneath them. when i crank the lights up manually they will once again turn on with the stalk, but when i turn the lights off they will go down, but not come back up unless i crank em manually again.


What I've tried so far
- replacing the 3 black headlight retract relays in the d side fuse box. even after replacing them it seems as if only 1 of them clicks.

- replacing the stalk since i know that can cause problems. the one i replaced it with was used as well but i'm gonna pull the one off my brother's car just to be sure since his definitely works.


the only other thing is can think of is the harness has the brown wire cut/ sleepy eye mod, and i want to try replacing the 25a fuse in the pass side fuse box. but any help and insight into anything i may have overlooked is appreciated. thank you
