Thanks to all who helped. It turned out just to be a hose that had popped
off.
The original system is still working after 35 years and no parts have ever
needed to be replaced so I think I will stick with it.

Scott,
Here's a link. It's got a pretty good trouble shooting procedure:
http://www.corvette-101.com/vacuum.htm
Basically the lights are raised by the actuactors. The actuactors get the
vac.
from the relay. So I'd check to see of you get a change in vac. at the
control
port (top) of the relay. If not, then there's a start.
If you do, check the output of the relay? If you have vac. there, then I'd
suspect
a bad seal or broken diaphram in the actuactor.
Might be time to convert to Terry's air headlights. :)
