Do your headlights dip when you brake?

[jcmiro]

I retrofitted a set of 2018 oem Toyota Lc200 led lamps on my old rig (2010). Everything was a pain to rewire...... But lighting is efffffing amazing....... One thing I noticed is when I brake, the lights aim down. They reset when I take my foot off the brake..... What's going on?

Are you sure they are AIMING (being adjusted) downward? Or are you just seeing the natural dip downward as you truck nose-dives a bit from nofmal braking physics?

mine are adjusted all the way up but are still too low! my hope is when i put my lift on all will be good!!

For sure. They dip about 30 degrees, definitely not nose diving.

have you tried adjusting them with a screw driver? There are holes and are easily adjustable, if your at max height electronically.

Did you accidentally tie the electronic headlight adjustment circuit into the brake circuit? Try setting the headlight adjustment to 5 (lowest setting) and see if it still happens.

I bought a kit off alibaba and bought a set of OEM lamps.

I spliced all wires to available wires in 2010 headlight wiring.
