1998 CADILLAC CATERA low beam

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine It is recommended that the upper limit not exceed plus
0.4 degrees from the center of the bubble. Other drivers
may flash their high beams at you
if your adjustment is
much above plus
0.4 degrees.
If you find that the headlamp aiming needs adjustment,
follow these steps:
1. With a screwdriver, unscrew the fastener on the
headlamp cover and then remove the cover to be able
to see the back of the headlamp assembly.
2. Check the vertical aim for each headlamp and adjust
it as necessary. The vertical aim adjustment screw is
located on the outboard side
of the headlamp
assembly. You can see the level through the
headlamp assembly.
Turn the vertical aiming screw
until the bubble in the level
is centered at 0 (zero).
3. If the horizontal aim needs adjusting, see
your dealer.
Adjustment screws can be turned with an
E8 Tom@
socket
or a T15 Torx screwdriver.
