Slight Problem After Changing Bulbs In Headlights

[Firebreather]

Hi, I changed the bulbs in my front headlights, and they work perfectly (eg. dipped, full beam etc). But I cant control the headlight beam level, u know the wee rotational button beside the handbrake in the 98 corolla, and when u increase the number the lower the headlight beam level...

But when i change the number, nothing happens to the headlights....please help! :o

The bulb fitting/bulb shape isnt fouling on the reflection screen/silvery bit. that the lights poke through is it?

I have the same in my Paseo & it's never worked.

I dont think it is, the new bulbs are H4 just like the standard ones, and they fitted perfectly, I have 2 corollas, and I am going to change the bulbs in my other corolla today and going to see if the beam level control doesnt work in it...

But i just checked the manual, and they say to go to the toyota dealer to get the aiming adjustment done....

Have you gone to the toyota dealer to check it out?

You might have blown a fuse for the Headlight level control when you changed the bulbs.

Did the Level control work before you changed the bulbs ??

I was thinking the same mick, but u see i am not sure if they did work before!, they did work several weeks before, but its not often u use the beam level control!
