My driver side bulb burned out, so I had to replace both HID bulbs by brand new Philips 4300k bulbs I bought on ebay. I followed instructions how to replace them and I thought I did everything right. Today I noticed that my lights did not auto-level (go down and up when you turn the lights on), they just lit up and now my driver light is lit up higher then passenger side?! Anyone has any idea what could have gone wrong or I have to reset a fuse for auto-level motor, if there is one, or else? Anyone else had this problem? Help.

P.S. I do not have any warning lights on my cluster.

I think I fixed it.. I took out ECU-B fuse for 25min, then having the lights switch on auto, turned the engine on and saw the lights auto-level, first down, then up..

grrreat suksess!! like Borat would say..

I recently went through this and had the light beam facing higher than the light i didn't replace. At first i couldn't figure it out, then when i removed it and tried to install it again, i noticed that i did not put the base of the bulb housing flush against the seal of the headlight. I reinstalled, made sure the base of the bulb's housing was flush with the headlamp assembly and all turned out well. It was nerve wracking for a while, but i'm glad i didn't give up as i was able to resolve it.

I think this is what I have too.. I just noticed that my driver's side headlight is lit higher and when I looked from the top down onto the headlamp the bulb shinny housing inside the headlight has a much bigger gap then the passanger, I must have moved it or something when I installed it.. I will try to redo it tomorrow and maybe try to move it back into place.. I hate when something does not go right after I do something to the car..

Ok here is my problem.. Can anyone look at your headlights and compare them to my pics that I included on the bottom of this post.. one of my headlights is not alligned correctly.. after putting the car on straight road, I started the car and saw the lights auto level and these are the pics of the way my lights are leveled, there is a problem and I must re-adjust them, but do not know how!
