Default Headlight Motor Relay

My headlights stopped going up.
Does the headlight relay on the motor control this function?
The switch appears to be good, as I can turn on the parking lights.
Thanks

Just happened to mine this AM--no popup.

I checked fuse #1 on the secondary fuse block-OK
I pulled the rubber relay cover by the motor---(cheap fix if your is cracked) and pulled the relay out-cleaned the contacts and same for the plug next to the relay.

Spun the head light motor self lift **** a couple of times------ALL IS GOOD! Back to normal.
