Hello.

I have an Opel Omega 2.5 DTI with xenon headlights. When i connected it with "My Naff Code Reader" the software said that the headlight level adjusters are missing.

Can you tell me where to check if they are really missing or they have a problem.

Sorry for my english.

Greetings from Bulgaria

"My Naff Code Reader" is rubbish ;D

What are the actual codes, as I think the translations in the software are poor :)

I cannot tell you.. I was in workshop and they told me this. I think that they used two different softwares. I forgot to tell that my car is estate.. And the auto-leveling for the headlights doesn't work. I just want to check where are located and maybe i'll buy new one from ebay.

2 things tend to stop them levelling - the part as RobG says, or the Front wishbone sensor.

If you had the actual codes, we'd be able to tell you which it was, but the error description is actually invalid I think.

The levelling ECU is also prone to throwing errors if the battery gets a bit low

OK, but to fix your problem check the motors as pictured in RobG's comment, and the wishbone sensor at the front

Hello again.. I checked the two sensor (in the rear and front part of the car) as you show me in an other topic and i think that they are OK. I also removed the adjuster. Inside its like new, but how to check if its working? The white "knuckle" is not moving at all..
