Did you check if your retractor button on your dash is pushed in?

Are you serious!!? Please explain to me how and where you came up with this answer. A vacuum leak has nothing to do with his problem. The headlights are operated electrically and mechanically.

Mikey, were you able to fix your issue?

Re: 93 rx7 headlight wont close

Due to the wonderful weather and no garage, I have not been able to fix the problem. They come up when I trun them on just like normal. It is not my car. My buddy bought it and has no clue about this stuff. he asked me to help him out. I have not gotten to look at it yet. I wanted to get an idea of what to look for outside the stupidly obvious, before I went there. Thank you guys so much in advance

Re: 93 rx7 headlight wont close

Yea if you have the stock twins in check some of the vaccum line's & solinoids.

He's right btw ~ Most of the Rx runs on vacuum have you ever been/owned a 3rd gen. When you get on it watch the lights dim almost all the electronics are ran off of vacuum. Why do you think people go single turbo? Not just for power but to get rid of half the electrical headaches. Might be a fuse or the actuator in the motor (which means you need a new HL motor) since only one is not working you said?

Which does rule out the vacuum but not a bad guess.

Lmao at the first post I hope he did that.
