Headlight adjustment?

I finally give up and have to answer a dumb question. I'm a pretty handy guy and have adjusted a lot of headlights, but cannot figure out how to to do it on my 2007 Fleetwood Terra. No screws on the outside, no obvious screws on the back. Nothing in the manual, nothing on Google - what am I missing?



Thanks!

    Some headlights are not adjustable. Call Fleetwood.


    Fleetwood's response: "In regards to your inquiry, the headlights should be adjusted with screws, as you would be able to adjust the headlights on a car. We would suggest you take the coach to a dealership for assistance, as they should have a machine that assists with the aim of the headlight, making sure it is correct."
  • See my signature it looks just like mine. Mine was terrible just like you couldn't drive (see) at night. There is a frame built by Fleetwood and it is adjustable but my lights not frame were broke where they are adjusted which left them out of adjustment (down). I bought two new ones on amazon took a while to get them adjusted and my last trip out I did a lot of night driving and was just like driving any car I own, it was fantastic. If you need want any more info PM me or I can call you if wanted.
  • Looks somewhat similar to my 2015 Expedition. On it there is a very tiny screw head on top of the light housing, just above the dim bulb. Not obvious at all. I looked multiple times and never realized what it was until I finally found something on the web.

    I bet that, too. But, I've spent a lot of time under there with a light.

    It's good - I think - to at least see that it's not as dumb a question as I thought. My rig isn't drivable at night, though, so it's time to deal with it.

  • That looks exactly like the headlight in my 2004 Ford Expedition, so I bet it is adjustable as a whole unit - somehow.
