Hi This light has started coming on all the time. I've checked all the lights and they seem OK. I also checked for fault codes and it didn't find any.

 

Any idea what is causing it and how I sort it?

 

Thanks

Headlight auto levelling light.

 

Have you had your rear bushes changed recently ?

 

Have you changed the wheel tyre combinations recently ?

 

I assume you have HID lighting.

Do your headlights adjust upwards when you first start the car in the dark ?

 

You may have a ballast resistor failure.

Hi thank you for the reply I have changed all four tyres recently. I will see what it does in the dark.

 

Cheers

Did you replace your tyres like for like in size ?

I think they are the same size. I checked in the dark tonight and the lights did seem to go up and down when I started it up. Never knew it did that 😉 I don't think it has been driven in the dark since I had the tyres replaced. I will check on Thursday if light on the dash still on.

 

Thanks

Hi John,

 

 I am interested in how your investigations turn out.  Our Alphard Hybrid has just had 4 new tyres fitted and the Headlight auto levelling light has come on.  

 

I didn't even know that headlight auto levelling was a thing - our everyday car (Honda Jazz) has a little control to adjust main beam high manually.

 

Our Alphard "support", CampervanCo Scotland have gone into liquidation so we don't have anyone to go to locally to ask about such things.

Were the tyres fitted before or after the MOT ?
