Hey guys and gals,
Just ironing out a few issues with my new Corona.
Its an ST171 GTR, and its got the spotlights/driving lights with the automatic lids. I've had a quick look over the wiring and everything seems up to scratch but they arent working (the lids or the lights).
Now, before I go pulling it to bits I was wondering if anyone knew of any common problems with these or has any suggestions? I also cant seem to find the fuse for them, would they be run off the headlight fuse???
I'm quite stoked with the car overall, paid $1500 for it, all electrics, semi buckets, manual, brand new WOF & REG, 160km and even a fridge!! What more could you ask for!!

Holy shit! you have an ST171 GTR 
FINALLY someone else with one 
Well when we got ours in 1994 it had them...and they worked, off a seperate switch off the dash, but mother decided to argue with a wall (slow speeds) and broke the pivot points on the lids so we removed them.
They ugly anyway....but I dont think their is a seperate fuse for them, they run off the parklights.
So is yours a facelift one? manual? mods?

yeah, I spotted that switch, still no go.
yeap its a manual facelift model, dead stock except for a brand new clutch, and some 17's.
Im not really planning on any mods, its just a daily driver while Im building the Starship.

hmm well check all the wires (green and red to the parklight) plus there is a plug on that wire as well. Some people disconnect them for the WOF.
Is yours gunmetal/black by any chance?
