Nubira SX Hatchback L4-2.0L DOHC D-TEC MFI (1999)
Headlamp: Description and Operation
The headlamps are controlled by the multifunction lever located on the left side of the steering column. They will come on with the ignition in any
position. Turning the headlamp switch to the first position turns on the parking lamps, the side marker lamps, the license plate lamps, and the instrument
panel illumination. Turning the switch to the second position turns on all of the previous lamps and the headlamps. Turning the switch to the OFF
position turns off all the lamps.
Headlamp high beam and low beam are also controlled by this lever. When the headlamps are on, pushing the lever away from the driver until the switch
clicks changes the lamp from low beam to high beam. The lamps will return to low beam when the lever is pulled back. Pulling the lever toward the
driver also turns on the high beam. The headlamps return to low beam when the lever is released. An indicator lamp on the instrument cluster assembly
will come on when the high-beam headlamps are on.
The headlamps must be aimed for proper illumination of the road. Headlamp aim should be checked whenever a new headlamp assembly is installed or
service repairs to the front end area may have disturbed the headlamp assembly or its mountings. To check or change the aim of the headlamps, refer to
"Headlamp Aiming".
