SOURCE: adjusting headlights on a 2005 ford freestar

hello wwhampton,

open the hood, take a close look at your headlights, if it is a headlight assembly, there are two screws with big plastic heads on the back of the assembly, these are the adjusting screws. one for horizontal adjustment and the other one is for vertical adjustment.

if the headlight is a round or square ordinary bulb, the adjusting screws are located near the bulb itself, these are philips screws. one on the top and one on the side.

a suggestion; when adjusting headlights, face the car to a wall about 5 ft away and adjust the headlight.

tnx 4 using fixya.

SOURCE: Replace thermostat in 2000 ford ranger

the open pipe that you took the hose off of is the thermostat housing, you will need to remove this to reveal the thermostat, make sure you use a new gasket with sealant when reinstalling thermostat housing to prevent leaks and dont over tighten the bolts,run both bolts down as far as you can before final tightning

you need a repair manual, Haynes or Chilton, there are too many places to explain here in this format, if you can not find these book at your local parts store, then try your local library, then sometimes even have the dealer shop manuals for your use, hope this helps

How do i drain radiator on 2005 ford freestar

I'm not familiar with that model of car, but if there's no drain hole with a removable cap at the bottom of the radiator, you may simply need to disconnect a radiator hose at the lowest point in the system.

How to change a 1999 Audi a6 alternator

Changing the alternator itself is the easiest of tasks on the A6. It's getting to it that is a problem.
Here is how.
Disconnect the headlight connections the remove the headlamps.
Disconnect the water hoses between engine and radiator.
Remove transmission cooler pipes from radiator. (You have to plug these somehow to prevent loss of ATF and dirt contamination)
Remove spot light covers from bumper. Look under there and you will see 2 alled bolts fixing the bumper to the chassis. Undo these.
Next remove the bumper bolts on the fenders whichn yo can only reach through the headlight holes.
Ease out the grille and disconnect any wiring that could be strained especially the one on the radiator lower hose.
Pull the right side of tf the bumper out more to see the alternator. You do not have to remove air con pipes, just un-hook any hangers.
You need a 17mm socket and power bar to remove the serpentine belt then you undo the 2 bolts attaching alternator to motor and the 2 elecric cables to the alternator.

How to change the headlights?

Hi there, here are some few tips to assist you:
  • Remove the center cover and the screws attached to the radiator grille. Pull the radiator grille out of the engine compartment and set it on the ground.
  • Use a T30 Torx screwdriver to remove the two primary retaining screws from the headlight assembly. Make a note of each screw's original location--they're not interchangeable, so you'll need to put them back in the right slot to reassemble the light.
  • Draw the headlamp assembly away from the car and then disconnect the electrical wiring connector.
  • Release the wire clip on the back of the headlight assembly and remove the cover.
  • Disconnect headlight electrical connector and turn the bulb socket counterclockwise to remove it from the assembly. Install the new bulb, replace the cover and reattach the electrical connector.
  • Reconnect the headlight assembly wiring connector. Test the new bulb to make sure it works before replacing the retaining screws and radiator grille.
Hope these help. Please rate me if they do.
