It now occurred to me that in order for one to call up the info, you may have to register with the newspaper. This should save you that inconvenience: I have a 2000 Dodge Grand Caravan, and when I have the low beams on, I can see them shooting almost straight into the ground only a few feet in front of the van. When I have my high beams on, no one flashes their lights at me to go to low beam. I believe my headlights are not aimed correctly. I have not had any success in finding the recommended adjustment to aim them. Do you know what the proper aim is for the headlights? A Here's a simple headlight aiming procedure that works for most vehicles. Make sure the fuel tank is at least half full, then park the vehicle on a level surface about 6 inches from a vertical surface -- the driveway and garage door often work well for this. Turn on the low beams and mark the center of the "hot spot" from each headlight with a masking tape "+" on the wall or door. Back the vehicle straight back about 25 feet, and check where the hot spot from each headlight now falls. They should be about 2 inches below and 2 inches to the right of each "+" on the wall. Adjust accordingly.
