Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Fog Lamp Unit Alignment
Prepare an alignment screen (Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE - HEADLAMP UNIT ALIGNMENT ). A properly aligned fog lamp will project a pattern on the alignment screen 100 mm (4 in.) below the fog lamp center line and straight ahead (Fig 1). To improve visual interpretation of the fog lamp pattern on the alignment screen, the headlamps should be in the "OFF" position.
The fog lamps are adjusted vertically by a adjustment screw located just above the fog lamp unit in the front.
