Headlight alignment

[truCido]

Just had to have my headlight alignment sorted to pass the MOT but what makes it go out of alignment?? would it not be out if they say forgot to change the setting on the dash?

No that just adjusts height and will not make a difference at mot.

Im a mot tester and it does have to be on zero to get the correct alignment but not sure wot makes them to lose the correct setting though.

I didnt think the light alignment was tested on the mot! Mine never have been

Well yeah they should do anyway! it just checks the height and the beam pattern and shows up if anyone has put a bulb in wrong which i have founds loads of times.

Oh il get them to give it a quick check next time. I always go to the same place so they kno me and can turn there eye if anythings wrong cos they kno il fix it anyway
