Next to the light switch on the dash, you will see an adjuster to alter the height of the headlight beam. This operates on vacuum.

With the engine running, switch on the headlights and move this adjuster up and down. Do the headlight beams move up and down too ?

If they don't, then you have a vacuum leak or a vacuum pipe incorrectly fitted.

Sounds crazy, but its an easy way to check.

Hi,
Yes, vacuum pipes could be wrong [as can many other things], but without live data [or anything else to go on], i'm afraid there's too much guesswork involved for any member to give you any real useful advice.

Hi,
Welcome to the forum.
What diagnostic machine has this been read with?
Could the technician read any live data? Did he/she do any more tests?
These need to be your next steps.
