Upon some members request, I'm posting some rescued pictures I took while I installed the electric actuator replacing the defunct whipper motor set-up for the headlight mechanism.
-I removed all limit switches assembly.
-Removed the motor assembly.
-Reused one L shaped bracket for the actuator rear support.
-Reused part of the original wiring ( modified connections) for the actuator operation, extension and/or retraction.
-4", 12 VDC actuator was this one from Firgelli automation. This device has internal NON adjustable limit switches. Once the shaft reach their ends (up/down) will stop automatically.
-I use a two positions rocker switch to manually open and close the headlights and stop anywhere in between.
I hope that this pictures will help others in their future mods...
