How to Adjust the Headlight Height on an Accord?
1 Answers
Improperly adjusted headlight height may affect visibility for both the driver and others. Nighttime driving can easily cause visual fatigue, so proper headlight adjustment not only enhances your own driving safety but also facilitates others on the road. Currently, the Accord offers two main methods for adjusting headlight height: manual and automatic. Details are as follows: 1. The 10th-generation Accord models feature automatic adjustment. If the headlight height still feels unsuitable, you can open the engine compartment and adjust the base height of the headlights using the adjustment nuts located at the back of the headlights. There are two threaded screws behind the headlights that can be turned with a Phillips screwdriver—one adjusts the vertical angle (height), and the other adjusts the horizontal angle (distance). 2. Some models offer manual adjustment via a dial located on the left side of the driver's seat, allowing owners to adjust the headlight projection height as needed. Models without the manual dial feature automatic adjustment, where the headlight height adjusts automatically based on the vehicle's body height.
