FORD 2000 Windstar - Manual (Page 246)

AIMING THE HEADLAMPS
Your vehicle is equipped with a Vehicle Headlamp Aim Device (VHAD)
on each headlamp body. Each headlamp may be properly aimed in the
horizontal direction (left/right) and the vertical position (up/down).
A non-zero bubble reading does not necessarily indicate out-of-aim
headlamps. If your vehicle is not positioned on a level surface, the slope
will be included in the level indicator. Therefore, vertical headlamp
adjustment should be performed only when beam direction appears to be
incorrect.
You will need one E8 Torx socket to make the adjustments.
If the vehicle has been in an accident, the vehicle’s front structure
should be properly aligned before aiming the headlamps.
Horizontal aim adjustment
1. Park the vehicle on a level
surface
2. With the hood open, locate the
horizontal indicator and the
adjusting screw on the inner top of
the headlamp.
3. The “I” and “O” on the yellow
ring refer to the directional change
(inboard or outboard of vehicle) of
the horizontal aim.
• For the left-hand (driver’s side)
headlamp, turning the adjusting
screw clockwise will change the
aim outboard (left), and turning
the adjusting screw
counterclockwise will change the
aim inboard (right).
• For the right-hand (passenger side) headlamp, turning the adjusting
screw clockwise will change the aim outboard (right), and turning the
adjusting screw counterclockwise will change the aim inboard (left).
