Tales of the unexpected

[icraigmy]

After six years of owning my MR2, I noticed this morning that the drivers side main head light does not pop up, so I have only one main headlight. Shock, horror. Mr reliable has let me down for the first time. Still, not bad, one fault in six years.

Oh well have to take the TVR out this morning then.

Pop the headlight motor fuse out and wind it up by hand. I cant speak for the mk2 but on the mk1 the fuse is labelled "RTR MTR" and the manual winders are under plastic caps behind the headlights in the frunk.

Thanks for that info. I wondered what the red screws were at the back of the light. It's the manual override. The arm connecting the motor to the light had come off. Must of been the speed bumps at work, caused it to come off.
