Exclamation 2001 Grand Caravan, headlights

General info. Everything else was working perfect but the headlights would not come on. From 2001 on the headlights do not have any fuzes or relays. The relays are combined into a small sealed box plugged into, then saftey screwed onto the front of the regular fuze box and the Haynes manual says it is called a " forward control moduel ". They forgot to put in the simple word "headlight". Now the worst mistake is not telling you that there is a small flush "RESET " button on the front and nothing is marked. I just got this van and am a mechanic but I had a hard time getting the lights working as no one seems to know about this least of all the dealer. My brother has 3 Caravans but all a bit older. When his blinkers quit on one side only he replace the control box under the dash. Now the blinkers work but the headlight do not come on automaticly as they are supposed to in Canada. The manual regular switch works OK.

there is all kinds of threads on here about that issue and I guess I'm not aware of a reset button. The problem with the headlights is the terminals spread in the front control module and stop making contact.
