Trying to help a local 1987 Fiero owner locate a headlight control module. He claims to be having a problem with the headlight motors not closing, otherwise they operate normally. Someone else has diagnosed it as being a faulty module. Before I give him this info, does anyone know if the info below is accurate?:

Headlight Control Modules: The headlights in the '87-88 Fiero are controled by an electronic module found beneath the left front fender behind the fender well. The module (part no. 16523917) was used on the following cars:

'97-04 Corvette
'87-89 Firebird
'86-89 Pontiac Sunbird
'86-89 Buick Skyhawk

An identical looking module (part no. 16525685) was used on the '90-94 Sunbird, '90-02 Firebird, '90-92 Olds Toronado/Trofeo and '90-92 Buick Reatta. That module will NOT interchange with the Fiero.

Thanks in advance,
Mike

The information is accurate. gmpartsdirect.com lists part no. 16523917 as the headlight control module for the 1987-88 Fiero. Their price is about $175 plus shipping.

My '87 Fiero currently has one of the Corvette modules in it. I paid around $40 for it (used) on eBay.

Ok, thank you for the info!
