  Q: What is the recommended method for adjusting headlights to avoid blinding oncoming drivers and reducing visibility?

  A: Headlights must be aimed correctly to avoid blinding oncoming drivers and reducing visibility. It is recommended to check the aim every 12 months and whenever a new headlight is installed. The simplest method involves using masking tape, a blank wall, and a level floor. The tape should be vertically on the wall in reference to the vehicle centerline and the centerlines of both headlights, with a horizontal tape line in reference to the centerline of all the headlights. The adjustment should be made with the vehicle parked 25 feet from the wall. For low beam adjustment, the high-intensity zone should be positioned two inches below the horizontal line and two inches to the side of the headlight vertical line. The adjustment can be made by turning the vertical adjusting screw. With high beams on, the high-intensity zone should be vertically centered just below the horizontal line. Some 2002 models have a horizontal adjustment screw, but later models do not offer adjustment for the horizontal plane. Prioritize the proper aim of the low beams.

  Q: How can I adjust halogen bulb-type headlights using a simple method and necessary tools?

  A: Halogen bulb-type headlights can be adjusted using two adjustment screws situated on the top of each headlight housing. To adjust the headlights, follow a simple method involving masking tape, a blank wall, and a level floor. Place vertical masking tape on the wall in alignment with the vehicle centerline and both headlight centerlines. Create a horizontal tape line corresponding to the centerline of all headlights. Park the vehicle 25 feet from the wall, ensuring it's level, with a half-full gas tank and no excessive load. Begin with low beam adjustment, positioning the high-intensity zone two inches below the horizontal line and two inches away from the vertical headlight line, away from oncoming traffic. Use the vertical adjusting screw to raise or lower the beam and the horizontal screw to move it left or right. With high beams on, center the high-intensity zone vertically, aligning the exact center just below the horizontal line. Arrange for headlight adjustment as soon as possible.
