1*2 xenon adjuster attachment?

[Schweppy]

Right so i have bought a set of xenons for my cup.

I know that i have to use manual adjusters that come from my standard lights but inside the light i can see that there are 3 white plastic adjustmers.

1 is the main level adjuster that you control from inside car.
1 needs an allen key for MOT adjustment, etc.

The 3rd cannot be controlled but is a small white clip attached to a black ball joint which allows the lens to move. This has been disconnected on mine and needs to be popped back in but i have no idea how as you cant get your hands inside.

Any ideas?

Any ideas?

Nope, sorry

 

[JON13S]

[Schweppy]

Nope, sorry

Was that not a waste of energy to type?

Bumped my thread though

 

[Jay Payne]

Just so you didnt waste energy asking me on msn

is the balljoint still intact? if it isnt....the units useless.....but if it is....they are a right pain, i did it with some very long nose pliers once, but was a standard headlight unit, very similar locations of the balljoint things though

 

[Schweppy]

Yep everything still intact.

I have managed to pop it back in but the light doesnt move up and down smoothly.

Feels like something is getting in the way?

 

[f0xy]

are all three (i think there is 3) ball joints connected ok? no cables in the way or anything?

 

[Schweppy]

Not sure, it might be cables but i cant for the life of me get out the bulb/starter, which would make things alot easier LOL.

Its says twist to open....

 

[f0xy]

yeah, will only go one way, they were stupidly tight fit on my old ones, have some sort of metal gasket thing on them.....itl just click and pop off when it gives way, the bulb will stay in the headlight and that is seperate, charger just goes onto it

 

[Schweppy]

Ah ok i'll give it a go. Cheers dude.

Will be bringing it on Sunday if i dont have any luck

 

[Schweppy]

OK so bulbs out....

Wires do look a right mess.

Can only see one ball joint though on the inside plus the motorized one and the allen key one?

 

[jonny_g]

schewp is this the one nearest the outer side of light as you look at it face on?

if so mine came out and i figured a way to fix it

 

[jonny_g]

is it this one (circled)?

 

[Schweppy]

Well i've checked but they all look connected now.

Something is stopping movement though. Sounds like its coming from the front corner of the light where you cant get to.

 

[jonny_g]

was the problem that connector no?

 

[Schweppy]

was the problem that connector no?

I dont think so. Looks pretty solid to me.

 

[Schweppy]

It looks like the lens isnt clearing the gap thats its supposed to move in and out of.

Looks too far to one side?!?!?!

 

[f0xy]

hmmm maybe its adjusted too much or something? is there an adjuster connected tothe back at the moment (motor?)

 

[Schweppy]

No, the problem started when i took it off lol.

Bought a whole new unit that came with everything. Pulled out the adjuster as i heard that i would need to use the ones from my lights and now somethings not right.

Do i mess with the allen key adjuster lol???

 

[f0xy]

carefully try it lol....as long as its not turned too far it shouldnt damage anything

 

[lemonnobby]

Andy bring the light down i will fix it
