Honda 8-97123-997-2 Lamp, Passenger Side Combination

The headlights have to be aligned appropriately to cut off light to other drivers and road users and also to ensure that the road in front is well illuminated to reduce cases of accidents. This must be readjusted every 12 months and at any time that a new headlight is fitted or any front-end body works have been completed. What has been explained above gives a temporary fix until a specialist can come and fix the problem. Headlights feature two spring-loaded adjusting screws: In some situations it may be necessary to have one engine to provide movement vertically and another engine to provide movement horizontally in the event of an emergency descent. An easy-to-administer technique involves the use of masking tape, a blank wall and a level floor. Vertical tape should be kept on the wall and measure to the center line of the vehicle and left and right headlight center line while the horizontal tape line should be kept in such a way that it measures the center line of both the headlights. Standard position of the vehicle is 25ft away from the wall, must be level, have at least half a tank of gas, and should not be carrying any heavy load. For the low beam adjust the high intensity zone to be two inches below the horizontal line and two inches to the right of the headlight vertical line, away from oncoming traffic with height being tweaked with the top or bottom screw and horizontal position with the side screw. When high beams are on the high-intensity zone should be right on the lower horizontal line. This means at some instances could be impossible to align the high beam and the low beam hence the importance of aligning the low beam to avoid any accidents. Last but not the least, it is imperative that the headlights are aligned, this can be done professionally, earliest in the first service.
