Default Help! Auto headlight adjustment warning indicator on after reinstalling headlamp assy...

Anyone seen this? It came on after reinstalling the right headlamp assy (Xenon). All of the lights work fine. It's the yellow malfunction indicator for "Automatic Headlight Adjustment Control Faulty" (see p. 2 of the 1.8T quick reference guide following the attached link or attached picture).<ul><li><a href="http://www.audiusa.com/common/myaudiManualsPdf/myaudiQRG_A4_all_2002_en.pdf">A4 1.8T Quick Reference Manual</a></li></ul>

Default You need a VAG to clear the error codes. Then you might need to realign your Xenons.

If you notice, your auto-leveling is also not working. (easy way to check is turn on your lights, then start your car.) Obviously it doesn't dip down and readjust like it should.

Thanks! I have a VAS5051 here at work, luckily, so I'll try that.

Default Here's a link to the instructions for doing it with a VAG/VAS:
