HEADLAMP LEVELING MOTOR
DESCRIPTION
The headlamp leveling motor is located on the rear
inboard side of each headlamp unit on models
equipped with the headlamp leveling system, which
is available only in certain markets where required
(Fig. 31). The motor is encased within a molded plas-
tic housing and is secured by an integral wedge-type
mounting boss on its forward surface to a flanged
receptacle on the back of the headlamp unit housing.
A rubber seal around the circumference of the
mounting boss is compressed and seals the motor to
the headlamp unit when the boss is properly
installed in the flanged receptacle. The outside of the
motor housing features an integral molded connector
receptacle on its rearward surface, a hex-headed
adjusting screw extends from the top of the housing,
and a plastic pushrod with a ball formation on its
free end extends from the center of the mounting
boss at the front. Within the motor housing is a
12-volt Direct Current (DC) servo motor, an elec-
tronic controller board that includes the motor logic
circuits, and an integral screw-drive transmission.
The headlamp leveling motor is connected to the
vehicle electrical system through a dedicated take
out and connector of the front fascia wire harness.
The headlamp leveling motor cannot be repaired
and, if faulty or damaged, the unit must be replaced.

OPERATION
The controller board and logic circuitry of the
headlamp leveling motor will energize the motor and
extend or retract the motor pushrod through the
integral screw-drive transmission based upon the
voltage signal input received from the resistor multi-
plexed headlamp leveling switch. The ball formation
on the end of the headlamp leveling motor pushrod is
snapped into a socket formation on the back of the
movable reflector within the headlamp unit housing.
The headlamp leveling motors and switch have a
path to ground at all times. The headlamp leveling
components operate on battery current received
through the fused park lamp relay output circuit so
that the system will only operate when the exterior
lighting is turned On.
Because of active electronic elements within the
headlamp leveling motor, it cannot be tested with
conventional automotive electrical test equipment. If
the headlamp leveling motor is believed to be faulty,
replace the motor with a known good unit to confirm
system operation.
REMOVAL
The headlamp leveling motors are integral to the
headlamp units on vehicles manufactured for certain
markets where headlamp leveling is required.
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable.
(2) Remove the headlamp bulb from the headlamp
unit housing. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/LAMPS/
LIGHTING - EXTERIOR/HEADLAMP BULB -

(3) Rotate the headlamp leveling motor on the
back of the headlamp unit housing counterclockwise
about 30 degrees (Fig. 32).
(4) Firmly grasp the motor with one hand while
stabilizing the headlamp unit housing with the other
hand.
(5) Firmly, steadily, and forcefully pull the head-
lamp leveling motor straight away from the back of
the headlamp unit housing to unsnap the ball forma-
tion on the end of the motor pushrod from the socket
on the headlamp unit reflector (Fig. 33).
(6) Remove the headlamp leveling motor and push-
rod from the back of the headlamp unit housing.
INSTALLATION
The headlamp leveling motors are integral to the
headlamp units on vehicles manufactured for certain
markets where headlamp leveling is required.

(3) Align the ball formation on the end of the lev-
eling motor pushrod with the socket on the headlamp
unit reflector (Fig. 33).
(4) While continuing to pulling the reflector
toward the motor, firmly, steadily, and forcefully push
the headlamp leveling motor straight into the back of
the headlamp unit housing to snap the ball formation
on the end of the motor pushrod into the socket on
the headlamp unit reflector.
(5) After the pushrod is engaged to the reflector,
remove your fingers from the bulb mounting hole in

HEADLAMP ALIGNMENT SCREEN PREPARATION
Prepare an alignment screen as illustrated.
(1) Position the vehicle on a level surface perpen-
dicular to a flat wall 7.62 meters (25 feet) away from
the front of the headlamp lens for North American
vehicles, or 10.0 meters (32.81 feet) away from the
front of the headlamp lens for Rest-Of-World vehicles
(Fig. 43). If necessary, tape a line on the floor at the
appropriate distance away from and parallel to the
wall.
(2) Measure up on the wall 1.27 meters (5 feet)
from the floor and tape a vertical line on the align-
ment screen at the centerline of the vehicle. Sight
along the centerline of the vehicle (from the rear of
the vehicle forward) to verify the accuracy of the cen-
terline placement.
(3) Rock the vehicle from side-to-side three times
to allow the suspension to stabilize, then jounce the
front suspension three times by pushing downward
on the front bumper and releasing. Measure the dis-
tance from the center of the headlamp lens to the
floor. Transfer this measurement to the alignment
screen and tape a horizontal line on the wall at this
mark. This line will be used for up-and-down adjust-
ment reference.(4) Measure the distance from the centerline of the
vehicle to the center of each headlamp being aligned.
Transfer these measurements to the alignment
screen and tape a vertical line this distance to each
side of the vehicle centerline. These lines will be used
for left/right reference.
HEADLAMP ADJUSTMENT
A properly aligned headlamp will project a pattern
on the alignment screen from just below horizontal to
75 millimeters (3 inches) below the headlamp center-
line for vehicles in North America, or from just below
horizontal to 125 millimeters (5 inches) below the
headlamp horizontal centerline for vehicles in Rest-
Of-World.
(1) Vehicles for all markets except Japan should
have the headlamp low beams selected with the dim-
mer (multi-function) switch during the adjustment
procedure. Vehicles for the Japanese market should
have the headlamp high beams selected.
(2) Cover the lens of the headlamp that is not
being adjusted.
(3) Turn the adjusting screw (Fig. 44) until the top
edge of the beam intensity pattern is positioned from
just below horizontal to 75 millimeters (3 inches)

MULTI-FUNCTION SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
The multi-function switch is located on the steering
column, just below the steering wheel (Fig. 50). The
only visible components of the multi-function switch
are two levers, or control stalks that extend through
dedicated openings in each side of the steering col-
umn shrouds. The remainder of the switch, its
mounting provisions, and its electrical connections
are all concealed beneath the steering column
shrouds. The switch housing and controls are con-
structed of molded black plastic. A saddle-like forma-
tion in the center of the multi-function switch
housing straddles the steering column tube just
below the column lock housing, and two posts inte-
gral to the lower surface of the switch housing
engage two holes on the forward-facing side of the
lock housing. Two integral ledge-like locating tabs
near the top of the rearward facing switch housing
surface are supported and located by two upright
stanchions that extend upward from the top of the
lock housing. Also on the rearward facing switch
housing surface near the center, an integral ledge-
like mounting tab rests on a similar ledge-like tab
that extends from each side of the steering column
lock housing. When the steering column shrouds are
installed on the column, the switch mounting tabs
are clamped along with the mounting tabs of the
clockspring between the integral mounting stan-
chions of the upper shroud and the lock housing tabs,
and are secured to the steering column lock housing
by the same two screws that secure the two shroud
halves to each other and the column.
There are several versions of the multi-function
switch to support both optional equipment and equip-
ment that is required only in certain markets. Each
multi-function switch control stalk has both white
nomenclature and International Control and Display
Symbol graphics applied to it, which clearly identify
its many functions. Each control stalk has a control
