Note you can check the continuity of the bulb terminal to ensure the bulb is faulty. No continuity means the filament is broken.

its dawn light if not mistaken .. T10

High/Low beam bulb is for H4 bulb (main bulb for headlamp)

After checking with official source, the light in called "position light"

mottrang....did u turn the screw until it just cant adjust anymore? even reverse the adjustment also cant move?

the adjuster is just basically a fixed screw with a plastic nut connected to the reflector bowl...if u turn too much, either the plastic nut came off the screw or reached the end of the screw n wore off...if really turn n no movement...u have to open the headlamp cover to take a look see. happened to me twice. tried changing to a metal nut but it seems they use a non standard size screw. in the end, i put some 2 tonne epoxy inside the plastic nut (just lightly coat the insides to add material so the screw has more material to dig into) n covered back the headlamp...hard to imagine...but once u open n take a look you'll understand.
