Cannot Adjust Headlights in A4 B6

[Uxair]

Hello All!

I recently installed a new pair of halo/angel headlights in my A4. They did not look right so I changed them back to the originals. Now eversince I have changed them back I cannot seem to Adjust the Lights at all using the switch inside the car. The lights do not seem to move up or down. Stay the same on '3' as they were on '0'. They worked perfectly fine before! I have checked all the connections and they seem to be fine.

Have I done something wrong? Have I broken anything?

The lights are stuck to low (and TOO low) and I cannot see what is ahead apart from a few feet.

Really really need help! Sorry to bother you guys!

When you turn the dial inside the cabin can you hear the motor which moves the lights??

As a "temp" fix, on the top of the headlight unit there is a white plastic allen key, turn clockwise to lift the beam up..

Park infront of a wall or garage, mark where the beam patten is and turn 3 turns clockwise and assess... its a temp fix until you get it sorted..

Sounds like the headlights where in the low position and the motor had no adjustment left to move them.....

Glad you got it sorted..
