Do you mean that the passenger beam pattern is angled/slanted up to the right? If so, yes, it is, slightly, and it's not possible to adjust that out.

Yes, that's what I meant. I also found no rotation adjustment and the same pattern when all tied up. Not everybody seems to have this issue though.

The passenger side beam is supposed to be slightly higher than the drivers typically. The reason being is to illuminate the side of the road a little better so you can see deer, pedestrians, parked cars etc a little better.

I understand it should be higher. The issue for me it is not flat.

Sounds like the projector may be clocked incorrectly in the housing?

That's what I think. Thanks to Dleta for hosting this side conversation

I had more to say about the Morimoto XB headlight alignment and I put that discussion over in this thread.

Is -AJ an outdated version then? Sync 3 doesn't find any updates in its Automatic Updates search, but I have found and loaded -AM onto a USB file which I'll try to install once I get my truck back.

What got me initially curious was the fact that the Flex I'm driving now, images of Sync 3 in the Escape and Edge, as well as BGG's F-150 show the bottom row as having coloured buttons for each tab (Climate, Phone, Nav, etc.) and being animated slightly differently. My truck right now just has blue buttons.
