Tips to Adjust the Headlights of Your Car
2
Whenever you notice that your lights instead of
focussing on the road is illuminating the trees
or pointing upwards, then they are misaligned.
3
Most car owners believe that preventive
maintenance helps in sorting issues like this,
but problems with your headlight can occur
anytime leaving you vulnerable.
4
Adjusting the headlight of a car is considered an
easy job, and you can do it yourself. Here are
the tips that will help you in adjusting the
headlights of your car.
5
Reasons for adjusting the headlights
6
One of the most common reasons for adjusting the
headlights of your car is when you are carrying
out too much weight in the trunk.
7
This will push down the rear of the vehicle to
such an extent that the front will tilt up, along
with the headlights.
8
If your car gets hit by someone from the front
end, then the headlights are the first object to
take the hit and will eventually require an
adjustment and you need to follow these steps for
adjusting the lights.
9
Locate the adjustment screws
10
You have to locate the adjustment screws on your
car and in most of the cases, you have to remove
the trim ring from the headlight.
11
The adjustment screws are located on the top and
side of the light housing and sometimes you have
to remove the battery or the coolant reservoir to
reach the screws.
12
Adjust them individually
13
You have to adjust the headlights one at a time
and make someone seat in the driver's seat as
this will help you know if the light has been
adjusted properly or not.
14
However, you need to cover the other light when
you are adjusting this one so as to not get
confused in the process of light adjustment.
15
Adjust the vertical field
16
When you want to adjust the light vertically,
you should turn the screw on the top of the light
housing and if you want to raise the light, then
turn it clockwise and if you want to lower it,
then turn it anticlockwise.
17
You should adjust the headlight until the most
intense part of the light beam shines directly on
or just below the center of the tape line on the
wall.
18
Adjust the horizontal field
19
Moreover, there is a screw located on the side of
the light housing and you can turn it to get the
right/left adjustment.
20
You need to adjust the lens in such a manner that
the most intense part of the light is right of
the vertical line.
21
Conclusion
22
The above-mentioned tips will definitely help you
in adjusting the headlights of your car on your
own.
23
However, after adjusting the headlights, take
your car for a ride to check whether the
alignments are perfect or not.
