The light means the system is powered so the fuse is probably OK. I am not sure about this particular car but there is usually some measure of self test involved as well so it makes me think there may be a mechanical problem. Many systems use a vacuum device to actually adjust the throttle so a loss of vacuum such as a cracked line or a hole in the actuator could be the problem. On my Dodge truck the actuator lives beneath the battery so they frequently corrode a hole and no longer work. One last possibility is the linkage from the actuator to the throttle could be broken or jammed. Good luck!

Make sure the rubber gaskets are in place and not cracked.Could also be a covered drain hole in bottom of housing if there is supposed to be one.

Condensation in a headlight assembly usually means a crack or split in the assembly somewhere.Remove the assembly and use a hair dryer to dry it out. Go along to an auto supply store and get some "seam seal" (not silicone) and a silicone based lubricant.Spread the seam seal around the join in the headlight assembly and let it dry up.This is usually overnight.Take the silicone lubricant and apply it to the rubber gasket around each light bulb.DO NOT get the lubricant on the bulbs. Replace the bulbs in the assembly.This should solve your problem. Good luck
