[DeTomaso] Headlight issue

Try with a firm whack on the left panel where the light relays are.  I have been doing this for years.

Jorn, when a couple of Panteras stuck their headlights recently, I found 
there are TWO power wires- one drives the motor and the other lights up the 
headlights. They are not routed nor fused the same. 
 
The wire driving the headlight motor draws power from a side-lug on the 
headlight switch in '72-73 cars. On one car it was off the lug and dangling; on 
the other, it was plugged into the wrong lug. 
 
If this doesn't work, you'll have to get out the VOM & schematic and start 
tracing the power wire backwards or forward from the headlight switch until 
you find a break. Good luck- J Deryke
