Thanks for the help! I have an extra headlamp which will allow me to check the bulb first. I still think it is the floor switch but I have an easy way of checking the bulb.

Thank you everyone for the help. My actuators were frozen solid and would not move. Looks as though they have not worked in years. This is a great forum which has really helped me out. I look forward to being one of those that gets to share information in the future.

Someone else disassembled my car and I am now having to finish putting it back together. There are a number of wires that go to the windshield wipers and motor for the windshield washer. This car is equipped with the washers for the front headlamps as well. Can someone help me with the wiring and/or send me a picture of how this setup should look. I would greatly appreciate it! :)

Maintenance / 69 Turn Signal Problem

Both of my turn signals work fine but blink very slowly. Is this a bad flasher or can it be a problem with a ground?

I am having a problem with my headlights. When they are on low beam they will not work but when I switch them to the high beams they work fine. Any ideas or suggestions?

I need some help with my system. My headlight system for my 69 camaro has been completely replaced including the headlight swith, vacuum relay, all vacuum lines, bushings, check valves, etc. The only two items I have not replaced are the the large vacuum cannister and the two actuators. Is there an easy way to test the actuators before I actually break down and buy new ones? If so what is this. I started the engine and ran it for a good ten minutes but the doors never did anything. Should I wait longer until I know the cannisters are good and evacuated. This vehicle did not run and sat in a backyard for 7 years.

Second thing, and I don't know if this affects the performance, is I installed an aftermarket high rise Edelbrock Manifold with a Holley 650 double pump, double feed carburetor. I had to use a port off of the top back of the carburetor since the manifold hole is under the secondary pump. Could this also be one of my problems? I checked the vacuum, by hand and not by gage, the suction appears to be fairly strong coming into the vacuum relay. What should I expect if I hook up a gauge to this hose with respect to the vacuum reading?

This vehicle has a big beefy engine and cam. Can this cause problems with this system and is there a remedy to the problem? Any help at all would be appreciated as I am down to the last few things on my headlights.
