What is the method for adjusting the height of the Lexus ES low beam headlights?
2 Answers
Lexus ES low beam headlight height adjustment method is: rotate the height adjustment knob located below the left side of the steering wheel. The Lexus ES is a mid-to-large-sized sedan from Lexus. Taking the Lexus ES250 as an example: the body dimensions are 4900mm in length, 1820mm in width, 1450mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2820mm, and the drive system is front-wheel drive. The Lexus ES250 is equipped with a 2.5-liter inline 4-cylinder DOHC 16-valve engine with VVTi and a 6-speed intelligent electronic control automatic transmission system. Its interior space is spacious and ample, with wide seats that provide a comfortable and proper seating experience; the overall interior design style is business luxury, with rich configurations.
My Lexus ES has been running for over five years, and adjusting the height of the low beams is actually quite simple. Here's how: Sit in the driver's seat and locate the small wheel near the lower left side of the steering wheel or around the instrument panel, usually marked with a light symbol. Turn it clockwise to raise the beam for longer-distance illumination, or counterclockwise to lower it and reduce glare. It's best to do this while parked on level ground—try adjusting the light against a wall or garage door at night, aiming for the beam center to be about 70-80 cm above the ground. Too high and it may dazzle oncoming traffic; too low and road visibility suffers. Also, regular light checks are crucial, especially before long trips, to ensure alignment hasn’t shifted. If the knob feels unresponsive or the light flickers, it might indicate wiring or sensor issues—visit a 4S shop for professional inspection to ensure safety. Remember, never adjust while driving to avoid distractions. Don’t overlook this during routine maintenance—make it a good habit.
