Having a problem with the headlights on my 914. Both headlights work and they both open and retract but they don't raise up all the way. They only open up about 75%. Both beams are shining on the ground when fully open. I've posted a picture. I very made every adjustment known to man but still they aren't raised fully. Any advice. L

- Windforfun. I took both headlight assemblies off the car to clean out the drain pipe below. So apparently I've probably made a mistake.
- Cairo. Yes I've checked the bolt at the top of the headlight that keeps them from opening too far and they haven't been monkeys with. bkrantz- let me take a closer look at this function bstone- Yes I can turn the know on the motor but they don't open any further. - Forgot to mention. When they close they don't close too far. They are level with the hood seam fully closed. |
