I recently bought a used 2004 Sorento LX, and am having an issue with the headlights.
When my low beams are on, they shine high, about where you'd want high beams to shine. When the highs are on, they shine low. There is an H7 bulb in the low socket (closest to the side of the vehicle) and what I presume to be an H1 in the high socket..
My question is.. There appears to be a deflector of sorts in the low sockets, but not the highs. Is this correct? There was no owners manual with the car, and I can't seem to find a decent pic of the headlight assembly to judge for myself if it's supposed to be there. If it is, is it possible that it was installed incorrectly?
There is no deflector with on the high beam side on either assembly.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Bob
*EDIT: I did find some close up pictures of the housing, and the little deflector is there on all of them, just like in mine. So.. Now I'm really lost. I noticed that the harness can't really be installed upside down, so I assume that the lights closest to the sides of the car are in fact supposed to be low..
Thanks again, Bob
