HEADLAMP AIMING

Tools Required

J 25300-D Headlamp Aimer. See Special Tools and Equipment .

The screen method is preferred for aiming headlamps. If the headlamp is equipped with aiming pads, headlamp
aiming may be performed using the alternate procedure.

Headlamp aiming is done with the low beam lamps. The high beam lamps will be correctly aimed if the low
beam lamps are aimed properly. If the high beam needs adjustment, follow the screen method using the high
beam bulb as the reference for measurements.

Screen Method for Headlamp Aiming (Visual Aim)

The screen method requires an area set up specifically for headlamp aim.

The area should consist of a level surface large enough to allow for a vehicle and an additional 7.62 m (25 ft) as
measured from the face of the headlamps to the aiming screen.

The screen should be a wall or other flat surface at least 1.52 m (5 ft) high by 3.66 m (12 ft) wide with a matte
white surface well shaded from extraneous light, and 90 degrees to the floor. The screen should be provided
with a permanent vertical reference line 0.61 m (2 ft) from the left edge of the screen, 2 laterally adjustable
vertical tapes, and one vertically adjustable horizontal tape.

After the aiming screen has been set up and located, paint or tape a reference line on the floor 15.24 m (50 ft)
from the vertical reference line on the screen. This line should be perpendicular to the aiming screen and a mark
placed at 7.62 m (25 ft) from the screen.

Headlamp Aiming Procedure

1. Align the left tires of the vehicle with the reference line extending from the screen with the headlamps

aligned with the reference line.

2. Remove any snow, ice or mud from the vehicle.

3. The vehicle should be fully assembled and all other work stopped while the headlamp aiming is being

done.

4. The vehicle should contain cargo or be loaded to represent normal vehicle use.

5. Tires should be properly inflated.

6. Rock the vehicle to stabilize the suspension.

7. Measure from the floor to the center of the lamp bulb on the vehicle. Some lamps have an aim dot marked

on the lens.

8. At the screen, measure from the floor and place the horizontal tape at the measured distance.
