How to Adjust Car Lights?
2 Answers
Methods for adjusting car lights: 1. Adjust via buttons inside the car; 2. Mechanical adjustment on the headlight assembly. The headlight adjustment button is usually located on the dashboard to the left of the steering wheel, featuring a wheel marked with numbers 0, 1, 2, and 3. Generally, 0 is the initial position, representing the horizontal level. The numbers indicate the downward adjustment height of the lights—the higher the number, the more the light is angled downward. Mechanical adjustment on the headlight assembly: 1. Open the engine hood and locate the car's headlight assembly; 2. There will be knobs on it—rotate them to adjust. If you're unsure how to do it yourself, it's recommended to visit a 4S shop or a professional auto repair shop and have a technician adjust it for you.
Let me tell you about adjusting car headlights. As an experienced driver with years on the road, I always adjust my headlights myself to avoid blinding other drivers. Park on level ground with the front of your car facing a white wall or garage door. Mark a spot on the wall corresponding to the center of the headlight, then back up about 7 meters and turn on the headlights. If the light beam appears too high or misaligned, locate the adjustment screws behind the headlight or in the engine compartment and use a Phillips screwdriver to fine-tune the height and alignment. The headlight beam should be about 1% lower than the marked spot to prevent glare. For best results, test the adjustment at night or in low light. Properly adjusted headlights make driving safer and more comfortable, and can extend bulb life. Regular checks are necessary, especially after changes in vehicle load, requiring readjustment.
