looking for some help regarding both front micra k12 headlights.
i Recently headlight fitted a new headlight (from scrapyard), after fitting this headlight i found the headlight aim to be out on both sides so i took it to my local mechanic to adjust the headlight aim.
after he looked at it he told me that he was unable to adjust the headlights on either side as the motor level adjusters were not working.and advised me to buy new headlights with new motors.
After getting home i tried the motor adjuster from the switch inside the car and he was right the headlight aim was not moving up or down when going from 0 1 2 or 3.
a friend of mine then told me that the headlights could be ajusted manually by turning the black screws on the back of the headlights. i had this done by a different mechanic - who told me that the electric adjusters not working was not an issue at all when it comes to beam allignment.
however , 3 weeks later the headlights are now pointing too low once again. i cannot adjust them with the electric adjuster and im not really sure whether its worth adjusting them manually if they are gonna keep losing aim every couple of weeks..
i have noticed that i can hear the electric motor working when i scroll from 0 to 3 however.. it is having no effect on the aim level...
do i need new headlights,new adjustor motors?? any help is greatly appreciated
