okay so I've always noticed that my headlights were off...
the left is the perfect angle but the right one is way up in the air...
I've read the manual and pulled the motor fuses and cranked the headlight motors....
the motors moved the headlights a lot.
almost to the perfect postion....
Then when I put the fuses back in and turned on my headlights again to check out my great work the motor pulled them back into the same crappy spot....
What do I do to get them even???
I've tried everthing....
I don't want to take it to the dealership so they can dollar and cent me....
I'm sure it's something simple I can do...
but I've replaced the headlights since I bought it from the lady who had it before me....
the headlights were in an ok postion before... so did I install the headlights wrong???

:shock:
all ideas will be taken seriously cuz I want to drive my car more at night!!!

^^ What does that even mean? lol

does the light fall back down with the motor or something else?

Your motor might not be strong enough to hold the headlight up

Click to expand...
There are motors that operate the car I have...
They can be on which means the headlights are up...
or
They can be off which means the headlights are down...

so...
the motors make the headlights move...
Not trying to make you sound dumb...
But I took the fuses out of the fuse box that operated these motors (which it says that in the manual)

so NO the light does not fall back with the motor...
and YES the motor is strong enough....
:lol:
I'M ONLY WORRIED ABOUT ADJUSTING THE LIGHTS...
Not testing the motor's strength....
One light is up in the sky and the other is down on the ground...
=]
:)

I've twisted the motors and readjusted everything but with no result...
But I will double check the headlights to make sure they were put in right....
=]:D

When you took the headlights out, did you by mistake adjust the headlights thinking they were screws to hold the head light in? If so then you're going to have to adjust them back into their proper space. There should be a screw on the bottom and on the side of each.

Either that or you need new motors. One of my motors went out completely.
