how are you trying to do it? ck the diy section or search
use a + screwdriver -slide down the V track on rear of light housing- see arrow on top of housing -shows which way is up/down
screwdriver tip engages the plastic top gear of adjuster system
may take several turns

if you removed the housings to change bulbs, make sure its back in the same place- look for clean area where the bolts where

did you put the bulbs in the same direction as the old ones came out?
that external wire thing was in same position?
The bulbs seated flat when installed and the wire arm went right in and locked?

any of those can cause align probs
