(7) Measure distance from the center line of the
vehicle to the center of each headlamp being aligned.
Transfer measurements to screen (with tape) to each
side of vehicle center line. Use these lines for left/
right adjustment reference.
HEADLAMP ADJUSTMENT
A properly aimed low beam headlamp will project
the center of the low beam hot spot on the alignment
screen 190 mm (7.5 in.) below the headlamp center
line. The side-to-side low beam hot spot should be
127 mm (5 in.) right of headlamp center line (Fig. 3).
The preferred headlamp alignment is 0 (
60.76°)
for the up/down adjustment as indicated on
bubble level. Preferred left/right alignment is 0
(
60.76°) as indicated on the gauge wheel. The
high beam headlamps cannot be aligned. The high
beam pattern should be correct when the low beams
are aligned properly.
NOTE: The bubble level and gauge wheel is cali-
brated before the headlamp is installed in the vehi-
cle. The bubble level cannot be calibrated without
damaging the headlamp module. If bubble level is
faulty, replace headlamp module.
To adjust headlamp alignment, rotate alignment
screws to achieve the specified low beam hot spot
pattern (Fig. 4).
