I had the same problem a long time ago when we had an '86 Prelude. It
happened whenever I replaced the multifunction stalk on the steering
wheel column. When I plugged the new wire harness into its mate on the
firewall, I inadvertently bent one of the pins just enough so it did
not go into its socket. Took forever to figure it out, as it is in a
tough location to see. Hope this helps!

The button on the dash just raises and lowers the lights. When you turn
the stalk switch: First click, parking lites on. Second click,
Headlights up and headlights on. Turning lites off: First click,
headlights off, parking lites on. Second click, headlights down.

Open the hood and try to operate the popup headlights. If they work
normally, the hood's bent right above the headlights. It doesn't take
much to get the hood to screw up the retractable headlights, so you
won't see it.

If the headlights open and close properly with the hood open, just lower
the hood to the "safety click" position, grab the hood in both hands
right above the headlight, and bend up just a tiny bit.
