Recently I had a my driver side headlight go bad (turned yellow) so I replaced the bulb and everything went back to normal
Until a few weeks later my headlights wouldn’t do the vertical part of the startup presentation and were stuck very low. Now recently only my passenger side goes up to normal position( I haven’t ever taken this one apart) Just wondering if it is a faulty control module or if it needs a recalibration after the new bulb.The headlights do however mover horizontally on startup

@nicenslow: My first reaction is to ask whether the SCAN for this car has any errors?

You could try re-calibrating the "true-horizontal" setting on the hex55 module like this (it's a 2 x part process):

Important: Make sure the car is fully settled on its suspension and that the vehicle is on level ground

Procedure 1

Select hex 55 - Xenon Range module
Select Basic Settings
Select Basic headlamp setting and start the procedure
This is where you would adjust the headlights using their manual adjusting screws as referenced against a suitable aiming target - but in your case go to the next step
Wait a period of time (suggest 10 seconds)- then stop the procedure

Procedure 2 (still in Basic Settings)

Select Acknowledge basic setting and start the procedure
The reference settings from Procedure 1 above should now be "recorded" in the module
Wait a period of time (suggest 3 seconds)- then stop the procedure
Back-out of the module, clear any error codes and exit OBD11 software (don't forget to disconnect the OBD11 dongle)

whataboutthis: le4dsoldier if you have a pre 2024 VAG motor that is supported and you have the Pro or Ultimate license you can code Adaptions and long Coding but after 2024 SFD2 STOPS YOU. SFD Can be unlocked but basic plan only allows you to use OCA Nov 21, 2024 16:52:53 GMT

whataboutthis: fliew you need to share more info, car year have you coded in obd11 or vcds etc there is no magic button to revert to factory setting you have to undo all your changes manually in Adaptions and Long Coding you can copy/paste if you have backup Nov 21, 2024 16:54:18 GMT
