Remove ribbed round cover on back of light assembly by turning CCW. You may need to remove a small water hose to get to 1 of the covers. Gently try to move bulb socket up and down. If it moves easily and is loose, that is the problem.
Use a small mirror to inspect the plastic adjustment parts that are inside and HIGH up. If they are not broken into pieces, maybe you can re-align the parts that push the assembly (causing the light beam to move up or down more) that fell out of place when someone turned the adjustment too much.
Those plastic parts are NOT sold unless you buy the entire headlight assembly. Some people glue them back together (GOOD LUCK) But I prefer the 5 minute FIX which is: Drill or burn with a heated flat blade screwdriver tip, 2 holes below and on the sides of the bulb connector. Insert a plastic tie strap tip end (size of about 3/16" X 12") down thru a hole from inside the assembly, then up thru the other hole and back inside. Start tightening it up with it looped over the bulb connector so that when tightened it lowers the rear end of the bulb. Be carefull not to let anything touch where it could overheat or cause a problem.
When it just begins to move the connector & the bulb base downward, (which will cause the light beam to shine higher) turn on the lights and continue gently and very slowly tightening the loop (make sure you get the slack out of the tie wrap on the bottom of the assembly) until the light beam is where you want it (about 26" to 28" high more or less) from the car. If you over tighten, cut the strap and start over.
When certain the adjustment is done, you might want to cut off some of the excess tie strap, but leave an inch or 2 just in case you need to pull on it again. Put some duct seal, silicon or other sealer on and around inside and outside the 2 holes so moisture does not get into the assembly. NOW TEST DRIVE IT. Follow these ideas at your OWN RISK.
