Front lights How do I adjust my night time lights. It seems to be too low, and high beam seems like low beam. I need to find out how to adjust high/low beam setting.

the bulbs are set in the reflector to get maximum illumination and cannot be adjusted. What you have to adjust is high beam and the low beam will be automatically adjusted. Th adjust high beam (after dark) place the vehicle on level ground about 3 feet from a wall. Turn on high beam and you will notice where the centre of the beam is on the wall That centre has to be slightly below the centre of the lights ( about 1 inch) The centre should be directly in front of the lights and not out to the side of the vehicle. When the lights are correctly adjusted then low beam will be in the correct position.

is there a headlight raising /lowering switch inside the vehicle , these are very common and are usually a wheel type switch or a turn type ,both have numbers on them , 1 low -4or5 high , the owners manual should confirm if this is a component fitted to you vehicle

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.

sounds like the dimmer switch is going bad.

the headlights can be adjusted but you can't adjust the high & low beam separately, you can only adjust the light as a unit unless you have a separate high & low beam lights ( twin lights) ......hope this helps......cheers.

I think that many 1990s and even some 1980s GM vehicles with seemingly 4 headlight systems actually use only 2 at a time.

My 1990 Oldsmobile Cutlass Calais, for instance, had 2 high beams that went on independently of the 2 low beam lights when switched with the turn signal lever.

In the 1970s the GM vehicles had 4 headlight systems where all 4 headlights would go on, but they used sealed beams rather than the capsule lights that are used nowadays.

For instance, our 1976 Cadillac Seville has a 4 headlight system that lights up 4 headlights on the high beam mode.

Good luck on seeing at night with the current set up.

my guess is headlite alignement, if you carry a load have them adjusted with a full load on

Shine your head lights on a wall either in your garage or outside wall and re-adjust your head light back to were you think you had them last. Use the high beam and the low beam settings and you will be able to beam the light were you think they should be. Common problem with most new vehicles now days, low beams don't seem to be bright enough.

There are adjusting screws on the headlight mounts, three of them I think. You may need a torx or allen wrench. Shine your low beams at the garage door or something and make the adjustments. Be careful not to let the low beams shine in other drivers' eyes. When you think it is right, park at night where you can walk in front of the car 100 feet or so and see that the low beams are not too high. The driver side light should point straight ahead, the passenger side light somewhat to the right.

Go to mechanic !
