Skoda Scala Headlight Range Control Fault

My 2022 Skoda Scala with a gasoline engine is showing a headlight range control fault. The error is stored, and a warning light is present. The low beam shines either too far down or up. I suspect a defective servomotor. Has anyone else experienced this beam adjustment problem?

I understand your issue. The Scala's lighting system can be quite sensitive. I experienced a similar headlight range control fault with the auto-leveling on my Scala. Is the headlight switch properly set to 'auto'?

When you experienced this headlight malfunction, did the low beam also shine too far down or up? Was it throwing the warning light in the speedometer?

Yes, precisely. Same symptoms: low beam aimed incorrectly, and the warning light was on. Check the headlight switch, but most likely it is, as you suspect, the servomotor. I advise a proper diagnosis in a workshop though.

After the repair shop confirmed the headlight malfunction, I replaced both servomotors. That fixed the auto-leveling problem. It cost 1040€.
