They're electric. I put a new motor in the 1990 Formula we had and had to purchase it from GM.

most of the problems are from the gears stripping
take apart and flip the gear over and its fixed until the next time it strips the headlights have a controller so may want to check that too |

Lon at Top Down Solutions has an inexpensive nylon fix that will take care of some of the lazy headlight issues.
IIRC, there is alos a relay on the firewall that affects their going up and down, but I'd have to look for the specifics on that. |

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
