My Headlights are Stuck Up!

Answer

There is that pesky light switch on the left side of the steering wheel. If you push it, your headlights will go up and not turn on. In your case, try pushing it and seeing if it makes your headlights go down. If not, here’s what the manual says:

Manual Operation of Headlight Doors:

1.- Turn OFF both headlight switch and retractable headlight switch.
2.- Disconnect the battery negative terminal.
3.- Look for the motors that drive the headlights. They're round and tucked up against the front of the engine compartment and next to the headlight
4.- Remove the motor shaft cap.
5.- Turn the motor counterclockwise BY HAND until the headlights open or close.
6.- Reinstall the motor shaft cap and connect the battery cable.

Let us know if this gets your headlights closed. There is not much involved in this system. It's either the motor, the linkage, or the switch.
