To adjust the headlights on a 2001 Nissan Altima, park the car on a level surface about 25 feet from a wall or garage door. Turn on the headlights and use a tape measure to find the center of the headlight beam; it should be about 2 inches lower than the height of the headlights from the ground. Locate the adjustment screws behind the headlight assembly—one for vertical and one for horizontal adjustment—and turn them as needed using a screwdriver until the beams are properly aligned. Always check the alignment by testing the headlights on the road after adjustments.
Check the headlight fuses located in the main fuse box. On a 2002 Nissan Altima the main fuse box is found inside the engine compartment.
