Headlights wouldn't work, so I got a used isolation relay. now the left goes up & down OK, but the right (pass side) does Nothing. Both relays "On the light housing" are good. Motor ??? (1st gen 1986)

How are you sure that the relays on each light are OK? Did you swap them to see if the problem moves to the driver's side?

It could be your central front headlight relay, there are three. One for each lamp and a distribution relay. If the DR is shot your kinda struck, they are no longer manufacturered nor available. If someone knows where else you can get it please let me know

the central relay,(Isolation relay) IS the one I just changed. I swapped the headlight relays side to side AND from a known working car. The relay on the pass side IS getting power IN and Power is going OUT to motor, the motor just does NOTHING, no click ,whir, movement, Nothing. I may take that motor (assembly) out & try it in my other car. then if it doesn't work there, it's the motor. If it Does, I'm back to square one.
