Aligning headlights

My left head light is pointed at the ground 10 feet in front of the car. I tried to adjust it but after turning the screw( it's the correct one) nothing has changed. I doubt anything is broken so are you supppose to keep turning it? I can't imagine how something so simple isn't working for me.....

Any help is appreciated.

Re: Aligning headlights

If the headlight housings both appear to be pointing the same direction (I'd think if a light only shines straight down, the housing would be obviously pointing downward too), see if the bulb is not installed properly.

Improper installation is the most common thing I see.
