    Hello
    How should the lights be adjusted in the Astra H xenon AFL?
    Because at the diagnostic station the visitor wants to turn off the engine and leave the car.
    But then it shines too low, because when you enter the car later you can see how the beam of light decreases after a while.
    And when it comes out they float.

    I heard that the car should be on and someone must sit inside and then set up
    I don't know myself, but there is something to it because I stand on the wall 3, 4 meters turn on and the lights are not sitting inside the car, the beam of light shines higher. Just get in and after a while the beam of light decreases and when the passenger next to me gets in it also after a while decreases even more.

    How is this colleagues?

    Hello, it's guidelines according to the manufacturer (tisa)


    The vehicle tires must have the prescribed air pressure. Damaged glass and headlight mirrors as well as tinted light bulbs must be replaced before adjustment.

    The headlights are set with the curb weight of the vehicle plus one person or a mass of 75 kg on the driver's seat (curb weight of the vehicle = mass of the vehicle ready to drive with full fuel tank and mass of all necessary equipment elements, e.g. spare wheel, tools, lift, first aid kit, warning triangle, etc.).

    Vehicles with manual leveling must be set according to the recommended base pressure (0.8 bar at the curb weight).

    When adjusting the headlights manually, switch on the ignition and set the light switch knob to "0".

    The intersection must lie between the horizontal and the ascending part of the cut-off line (inflection point) on the vertical section through the central marking.

    To make it easier to determine the intersection, you can alternately cover and reveal one half of the reflector several times.

    The headlamp adjustment devices used must comply with existing guidelines and the manufacturer's operating instructions must be observed.

    Regular check of the headlamp leveling device should be performed by the manufacturer's service team.

    Note: The headlamps must be adjusted using a screen corresponding to the relevant regulations or a special headlamp setting tool.


    In the event that the headlamp leveling control module has not been replaced, the engine must be turned on for approx. 5 seconds for the positioning motors to perform the reference mileage, from the current position to the lower bumper and then to the basic position.


    If the headlamp leveling control module is replaced, the system must be reprogrammed and calibrated using TECH 2. The reference waveform is automatically performed.

    Control

    Vertical adjustment: the light and shadow border (with LHD on the right and with RHD on the left) with the adjustment cross must be horizontal on the adjustment line.

    Horizontal adjustment: The border of light and shadow must run horizontally on the left up to the adjustment cross, and hence at an angle of approx. 15 ° to the right upwards. The inclination of the light beam is 1.0% per 10 m.

    Perform vertical adjustment first, then horizontal adjustment. After horizontal adjustment, check the vertical position again.

    First of all, thank you very much for your help, I was just looking for something like that.
    I just can't visualize it with:

    "The intersection must lie between the horizontal and the ascending part of the cut-off line (inflection point) on the vertical section through the central marking."

    Are there any illustrations?

    I'm asking about all this because I'm going to pull out the headlights to replace the filaments because one changes color.
    And as much as you can clean the lens and reflector.
    The height setting understood only the width so unbelievably
