- Go to the settings menu.
- Select “Service”
- Select “Headlight Leveling”
- When it prompts you, use the roller wheels on the steering wheel to adjust your headlights up or down to your preference. Keep in mind this adjusts the angle, not the brightness.
The headlight adjustment can only be performed while the car is in PARK. If the headlight adjustment setting does not work, try rebooting your Tesla. If a reboot does not fix the problem, it is possible that the headlights need calibration by Tesla, or the headlights may also be damaged and need replacement.
