yo guys, just finished rebuilding my 240 convertible ( posting pics real soon ) and i have one problem. Previously i had the sleepy eyes done to it by cutting the brown wire and just double tappin the button. However, now with the new headlights in ( came off a 90 i think ) they WILL NOT go sleepy. ive checked the wire, they are touching, its not shorting, IDK my lights themselves work fine, up down on off but i cant make em sleepy.

Any ideas? kinda annoying

youtube search the "180sx sleepy eye mod." it's in japanese but its hella easy to figure it out. cost about $20 and then you get to have toggle switches!!!

what i mean by wont go sleepy is i have NO control over my headlights with the button... headlight toggle switch i can turn the headlights on and off but no matter what my headlights ALWAYS go down.. i have the brown wire snipped but the headlights still go down... wtf

what i mean by wont go sleepy is that i do not have ANY control over my headlights... the button does nothing. currently i have the brown wire snipped and when i turn on my headlights with the toggle switch, they go up and turn on, when i turn the headlights off, the headlights go back down... no matter what they will not stay up
