Headlight leveling malfunction in Toyota Aygo: experience and advice wanted

Warning light in the speedometer of the vehicle

|

Low beam and high beam seems too high or too low

Hey guys, I need your help. My Toyota Aygo from 2016 (gasoline, 195374 KM run) is acting up a bit. The headlights (high and low beam) seem to be either too high or too low and a warning light is flashing in my speedometer. I've done a bit of searching on the internet and think it could be a malfunction in the headlight leveling system. Have any of you ever had similar problems? How did it go with your mechanic? I would really appreciate some advice. Thanks in advance!

Hi, I had a similar problem with my 2013 Toyota Yaris. In my case, it was the control unit for the headlights that was faulty. It caused my headlights to constantly appear too high or too low. The indicator light also kept flashing. The mechanic said it was something serious as it could jeopardize my driving safety if it wasn't fixed. The control unit had to be completely replaced in the workshop. So it's best to get it looked at by a mechanic as soon as possible. Good luck!

Hello, thank you for your quick reply! It sounds very much like it's a similar problem. I will definitely see a mechanic before it gets worse. Do you remember how much it cost you to repair the control unit? Or have there been any other problems or repairs since then? Thanks again for your help!

Hello, nice of you to get in touch. The mechanic had a good handle on the headlamp leveling malfunction. Since then it's really been fine with me, so don't worry, you'll get it sorted too! However, the repair of the headlight control unit was quite expensive, at 630 euros. So take enough money with you if that's the case for you too. But as I said, since then it's been running like clockwork again and I haven't had to do any further repairs so far. Hope I was able to help you! Good luck with the mechanic!

Many thanks for the detailed information and encouragement! The cost may seem high, but in terms of driving safety, any investment pays off. It's reassuring to hear that the problem was solved after your repair. I will now visit a mechanic and hope that my Aygo will run as it should again. Thank you again for your help - much appreciated!
