W212 2010 Xenon headlight horizontal adjustment
Hi guys,
I hope you are all well. As per the title, i own a 2010 W212, however the passenger side headlight is pointing so much to the right, that i can see the grasshoppers on the side of the road ( it is lefthand drive btw) .
I tried to rotate to both left and right , via the switch that is supposed to control the left and right adjustment but nothing happens. Funny (or not) it is not working on the driver side either. Both up and down adjustments work fine, but the horizontal left and right don't. I can see the wheel bar connected to the switch moving , but nothing happens.
Any ideas what it could be and how i can fix it without taking half of the front apart ? (need to take the bumper, grille and so on in order to gain full access to remove the headlights - and it is really something i would like to avoid at all costs.)
Looking forward to your replies.
Cheers
