Camry :: 2010 Headlight Adjustment - Low Beam Does Not Allow To See Very Far Down The Road


Aug 4, 2010

I suspect that I already know the answer but will ask anyway. In another lifetime I could adjust the headlights on my car (two spring-loaded screws on each bulb for up-down and side-side adjustment).

The low beam on my 2010 Camry seems to run out at about 30 yards. Some night I am going out and actually measure it. High beam has no problem as it goes forever. It just seems that the low beam does not allow me to see very far down the road. I have not asked the dealer yet and thought I would ask here first. Is there a way to adjust the headlights on these new cars with the total headlight system in one big package?

Passat (B5) :: Low Beam Bulb Go Out On Driver Side - Headlight Adjustment?

I had a low beam bulb go out a month ago on the driver side. I bought some silvania silverstars to install on both sides. The drivers side went fine but as I installed the passenger side the inside reflector housing came loose, apparently popping off some spring clips inside the headlight housing. The passenger side headlight assembly now pointed towards the ground 10 feet in front of the car... I tried to adjust the screws to bring the light pattern back up. No joy.

Anyway I messed and messed trying to get the reflector housing to fit back on the spring clips. I ended up having to pull the bumper apart and the whole front side of the car to totally remove the headlight assembly. Once I got it out I found these little ball/socket spring clips and was able to put the assembly back together.

Now my issue is I have lost track of the adjustment screws and where the headlights should point. Any formula such as, "park your car 10ft from the garage door on the flat level. The low beam should be 30 inches off the ground on the bottom and the 40 inches at the top. The beam should be 50 inches from the center line of the car" Something like that so that I can get my headlights back to factory settings.

Camry :: Headlight Adjustment - Aims Completely Off And Are Currently So Low

Lexus RX 2010-15 :: RX350 AFS Headlight Aim Adjustment Vertical (up)

I am trying to adjust the vertical (up) AFS headlight aim on my 2010 RX 350. They currently point too low and do not illuminate the roads well enough at night. Note that the vehicle has the AFS HID headlights that are located next to the front grill.

The owner's manual provides do-it-yourself (DIY) instructions. Electronic version may be linked here: [URL] .....

I found adjustment bolt A elsewhere. Adjustment bolt B was found as illustrated.

Following these instructions on p. 512, I have tried adjusting the two silver bolts for the left and right AFS headlights by manually turning each pair of bolts on both sides with my fingers rather than a Phillips screwdriver, but no effort appears to affect the AFS headlight aim either vertically or horizontally.

The instructions also recommend taking the vehicle into the dealer if the headlights cannot be adjusted this way.

Subaru - Legacy :: 1996 - High Beam Is Dimmer Than Low Beam In One Headlight

I drive a 96 Subaru Legacy. What does it mean when one of the high beams is dimmer (less light output) than the low beam? I am using a brand-new bulb. It's not an adjustment issue because I was looking at the bulb when it was outside of the housing and it clearly gets dimmer when you switch to brights. However, they are equally bright when on low-beam, so I don't think its just a crossed wire.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: MK4 Headlight Adjustment Just Spinning

I replaced some TYC OEM headlights on my car with stock OEM Hella headlights and cleaned up the lenses really nice.

Once installed, I went to adjust the headlights to find out that the passenger outer adjustment just spins.

I am not too sure if I can fix this. The little wheel doesn't seem like it can be removed and it has some back and forth play on it.

Lexus GS 2006-11 :: Headlight Aim / Vertical And Horizontal Adjustment

My headlight aim is all out of whack, the driver side light is aiming all the way to the passenger side. I searched the forums and know where the screws are for the vertical and horizontal adjustments. Counter clockwise for making the headlights go up and you're suppose to go the same direction on the horizontal adjustment as well. But my driver side headlight is aiming so far towards the passenger side already,I need to get the horizontal adjustment back to the left, which direction to turn? Clockwise or Counter?
