Why does the auto leveling have to be disabled when converting with the newer models that also have it as well?

I rather have the headlights painted, and body mold the led nike light to the bumper LOL. Sorry I love that feature before getting out of the garage seeing the light just raise up on the neighbors garage. I like the newer set as well so not a big complaint.

Auto leveling is only disabled if you pull the AFS fuse. Pulling the AFS fuse removes the blinking warning light on the dash when you do the headlight swap, since the new lights do not have AFS.

I did what many others do with the swap and covered up the warning light, so I still have auto leveling.

That make sense. I never seen a start up on the newer isf so thank you. So will switching the dash cluster to the newer style prevent a light from coming on? I will consider that since I do like the having the gearing displayed on its own; Just the original style looks a little more organized...lol.

Can someone point me the location of afs fuse? I find a group of fuse underneath the dash area above the gas pedal but don't know which one. Picture would be helpful. Thanks.

It's the fuse panel your talking about with the white cover. Look in the owners manual it will tell you which one to pull.

It's an easy fix. You just have to remove your bumper and reinsert it with a little more force so that it is flush, then re-bolt/rescrew. I took off the bumper expecting something in the way preventing flush fitment, buit as it turned out, I just needed to push it in a little harder.

I happened to find the manual online and find that the AFS fuse is number 17. I pulled it and it is still flashing. I then went on to test out every single fuse and still no luck!!! Mines the Japanese version and looks like the fuse is lined up a little different. Do you guys get the option to turn off AFS? however, this function doesn't work anymore after changing to the 2011 LED.

Never mind....I found the AFS fuse on the passenger side. Apparently its on the opposite side but somewhat the cover didn't mention AFS fuse. Anyway, thanks!

Figure rather than creating another thread i'll just add to this one

I think i might pull the trigger on the Sewell 2012 lights as they have a sale on them again, not as good as before but still pretty cheap.

So for the stripped version from Sewell I need Bulbs and Ballast to be transfered over. My question is do i need anything else like the covers in the back?
