Head lights wont go up and down... idk the first thing about how these work.

Where should i start to fix the problem?

Headlights work, they just wont move. However i cant manually twist them up and down.

fuse?
check wiring?
headlight motors took a dump?
pushed the switch that keeps them up

Feel the actual headlight motors with your hand to see if either of them are hot. When mine blew up one got stuck bad. It locked the headlight down and got super hot until it drained my battery.

try this, WHILE clicking your headlights on. take the base of your fist and smash it aside the steeringcolumm where the switch is. not enough to brake shit. you gotta do it, mid click
