I can adjust the low beam on my 2010 Impala but I can't adjust the high beam

low beam and high beam is in the one setting unless you have separate headlights
procedure is to place the car on level ground 3 feet from a wall that reflects the head light
draw a cross on the wall at the height of the center of head light lens
switch on the head lights (high beam)and you will see the center beam of high beam on the wall
using the screws at the back of the assembly adjust that spot to be pointing slightly to the left if rh drive ot left if lh drive and about 1 inch below the line that you drew on the wall
when you have that correct , it will put the low beam in the correct legal position
if the rear of the vehicle is sitting down , trailer of caravan on , the the head lights have to still be adjusted to legal setting

Can the headlights be adjusted in 2013 Camry

Yes they should be adjustable because people change tyre profiles front to rear and this alters the drive angle.The adjustment screws are in the headlamp housing behind lamps accessed from the hood/ bonnet side.you do need to do this properly so they align together at the legal height for full beam.there is plenty of online information on the correct height for full beam...once you have made sure all Your tyres are at the right pressure....park on level ground ...at least 3 meters from front of a wall ....and at right angles to the wall....measure the height to the centre of headlight to ground .......mark the right light horizontal line for correct height on the wall and make sure you put lights on full beam....they should shine slightly below (say an inch )to the marked the measurement of height of lamp on the vehicle....adjust until the right hand light horizon is an inch below...now mark vertical line to cross centre of reflected light....this will give you a register point to mark where the left light should fall ...this will be exact distance apart as on vehicle and again adjust left until it falls below 1inch of the measured height line of lamp on car......mark distance from right to left light and mark the same height in chalk....then adjust left light to pinpoint marked chalk cross.adjust the beams by turning the spring loaded screws behind the lights.once you are happy check dipped positions....on right hand drive the lights should dip below and left.left hand drive dip below and right.you probably didn't need so much info but ...hey it's free and it saves any misunderstanding.hope this is of help...please vote.thankyou.

Low beam toyota corolla

There will be no adjustment for low beam as the headlight assy. adjusts for both beams. Adjust lights on high beam from a distance of about 3 ft(1meter) The center of the beam to be slightly below center height of the light and slightly to the left (AUS) or right (USA). Face the car to a wall at night is best.

Headlights adjustment

Open the hood and look for adjusting screws right behind the headlights. Park the car on a level surface facing a wall or garage door so you can see the height of the beams of light. Adjust them up or down, or left or right and make sure they are both the same height. Drive the car at night to check your adustment, then change it if you need to.

Headlight height for mot

Hello, If you have a State mandated headlight aim requirement, just ask at a testing facility for the specs. Usually you have the vehicle about 20-25 feet from a wall and the headlights should be no higher than 42" off the ground.
You would set the drivers side beam slightly to the right and lower than the right hand beam. This way, you do not blind oncoming cars, but can adjust the right side to view the curb farther ahead than the left.

With the new 39" high mini-compact cars, the beams would point skyward, just as a 4x4 raised suspension pick-up would point downward.

Its a case of a standard equally applied to every vehicle and not giving the best results. Myself, I adjust the righthand beam up and out so that a curb or lane marker will keep me centered in my lane.

Left headlight (adjustment screws for right headlight are mirror image):
1 - Lateral adjustment 2 - Height adjustment
  • Access adjustment screws through hole in lock carrier (Phillips head or socket head).
  • Turn the adjusting screws for lateral adjustment -1- and height adjustment -2- until the correct setting is achieved.
NOTE: Where equipped, ensure equal movement/function of headlights during automatic headlight range adjustment.

I have a 1992 1.5L Impreza and the headlights seem to be a bit high. Is there a headlight adjuster? The vehicle's handbook is missing. Thank you. Helen

yes you can adjust it, open the engine bay, just behind the headlights you should see a long extension coming out with either a short phillips head screw driver or 8mm spanner you can adjust it, turn it left to lower and right to higher the light, try do it infront of a wall at night with the lights on so you can work out where you want the height.

It could be a case of a worn out clutch pads and lining, There is one adjustment for your clutch it is located under your dash, at the end of your clutch pedals arm and right about where the pedal arm pivots. You adjust it real slow, snall turn makes a big difference. good luck
