Headlight problem

Not sure what truck you have, and maybe I don't fully understand your question, but adjusting your headlights is a pretty basic task that I'm sure you can accomplish. I do know that some of the newer trucks are a real pain to adjust, but with a little info from you I'm sure someone can help you get them adjusted properly. It generally is just a few turns of a screwdriver though. Unfortunately some of the newer trucks are more difficult and have to be done with the hood open (who came up with those great headlights?) But they can all be adjusted to the best of my knowledge.

 

Yes they can be adjusted, look for two screws one for side and ine for up/ down, rule of thumb , 25feet from a wall lights should be 3 feet up drivers a little to the right, if my memory is good, there not hard, old ones in front newer ones under hood.

 

You might want to post truck model someonewillbe able to tell you better location of adjusting screws. And i thought this was going to be a female joke thingy lol.

 

For heaven sakes get in there and look at them to see what you need. It's a very simple job and will save a bunch of night blindness for other drivers. Shouldn't even waste a shops time with this adjustment.

 

Most Freightliners require a T-25 torx (sp?) bit driver. I'm not sure about the cascadias tho.

 

If your wagon still has the owner's manual in it, there's a section that explains how you can adjust your headlights yourself. All you need is some kind of a wall or building with horizontal, level lines on it. A garage door, a brick wall, a building with siding on it. You don't even actually need a screwdriver, you can turn the nuts with your fingers- and it's easy.

If you have no owner's manual, you can Google the instructions.

 

Apparently in this case, yes you are

 

Most headlights are adjusted with a phillips screwdriver. There will be 2 screws per headlight...one adjusts the up/down, the other adjusts the left/right.

Basically, you want both of your headlights pointing ahead of you, not off to either side...although slightly to the right is preferable to slightly to the left. Your low beams should be aimed SLIGHTLY downward...and absolutely no higher than "level".

 

If you are still having troubles, call road breakdown and ask if you can have TA/petro adjust it for you.
