Headlights will not adjust

[RAL]

As the header says. My lights are so low that even on high beam they are all but worthless. If it was not for my fog lights I would be SOL.
Is there some trick? They do not adjust up or down with the proper screwdriver in the hole. I can feel the adjustment turning but it does nada to the lights. Thanks

My GS has a problem of lights to high. Takes quite a few turns to get them to move. You need to screw them in to raise them up.

a 200 pounder on the back seat should solve your problem. LOL

I agree with SpydeeBite2, it takes a lot of turns. Be sure you are actually on the screw, using a flashlight to make sure of the location and depth. Phillips screwdriver, as I recall. If none of that works, someone probably backed the screws out too far, and they came out of the threads. That would make your lights very low, and unadjustable. You or your tech will need to partially dismantle the Spyder to get at them to get them started again, unless someone can push on the back of the housing through the instrument cluster (removed) while you turn the screws.

Thanks Scott. I think this is where I am at. Right tool, right spot, no change. Time for surgery.
