For 6 years I have passed German TUV (MOT) without a functioning headlamp adjustment, just correctly aimed. This inspection the headlamp adjustment was suddenly a problem. In the past, the first inspector who complained of the issue told me that if I could provide an affidavit that the repair and replacement parts were no longer sourceable he would waive the requirement. I have secured a statement from the manufacturer of the motorhome and for these many years that has been sufficient.
The most recent inspection refers to headlamp adjustment twice! Bummer to say the least.
These pneumatic adjusters were famously problematic all over the internet after YR2000. I wonder if anyone here was successful in replacing the entire system with an aftermarket kit. Has anyone repaired the old pneumatic system? What were the typical failure points to look for?
Any guidance is appreciated, thanks guy's!
