This is the first time I got to use my new Ford Service DVD and so far I am not impressed. Does the DVD really contain ALL the info that is in the printed manual? Anyway, I learned my headlights are "VOR" or "visual optical right" I am assuming that means for countries that drive on the right and the beams are actually aimed to the right (away from oncoming traffic) although they don't say what it means.
They say horizontal aiming is not required for VOR headlamps, but what are the specs? how far to the right are they supposed to be? is the right headlight supposed to shine off the road into the woods, and the left one light up the guardrail on the right, with a dark spot in front of the car? there must be some sort of ball park that they "should be" aimed for.
They say the sight shield may need to be positioned or removed for access to the adjusters. What is the sight shield, what does it look like? They don't even have a picture of the headlight pointing to the vertical adjuster, ( I guess they assume everyone knows where that is) I am wondering if the horizontal aiming CAN be adjusted, even though it shouldn't be necessary. But I think the service manual outta at least show a picture of the headlight.
Someone else on here mentioned that there was an adjusting screw hidden behind a removeable panel, I am thinking that might be what they are referring to with the sight shield. I dunno, but there must be a way to aim them horizontally.
