Video tutorial

The purpose of this video tutorial, which is also well described verbally, is to show the installation of the headlight height adjustment wheel for xenon headlights on an Audi A3. This procedure is suitable for vehicles that do not have these headlights as standard but instead have halogen headlights, which do not include automatic levelling.

Once all electrical connections between the headlights and the control unit are made, install the level adjustment wheel, ideally to the left of the steering wheel.

Once completed, as shown in the video, turn on the ignition and test the system.

Once the tyres are inflated, turn on the instrument cluster to check that the warning light has completely disappeared from the display.
