Headlight motor harness?

[nerfkhat]

Guys im in the process of putting my flip up headlights back on and I had bought some motors for it. But when i took a look at the plug on the motor it is a circular plug. But on chassis side the plug doesnt match its more of a rounded square plug.

Do any of you know if the the plugs would be diff from 90+ to 87/88 years? my car is a 90.

Do any of you know where I can take a look at parts catalog online so I can see if they are diff ?

motors have different part numbers for pre-89 and 89+ so more than likely that's your issue...

It's different for sure. I just brought in the headlight motors from the matching years. Too much effort in that space to deal with soldering IMO.

dang maybe ill make a conversion harness..wish i knew about this before i bought the motors.

more than likely if you find the connectors you can depin them and swap em instead of cutting and soldering...

what's the difference between the motors..?

Does this motor harness also control the Headlights themselves to turn on/off? Or is it just to pop-up/down function?

nope, I unplugged my headlight motors once to work on them and forgot to plug them in and they still lit up fine..

Yes the connectors are different from the years , some round some more square. You can make it work though by depinning them like poodles said and make your own connectors.

I have a complete harness off my '89 full hanress for the bay Pm me if you want it, Ill sell it cheap..
