Title: I've only Bl**dy fixed it!!!!!!
Post by: doz on 30 March 2012, 18:18:34
YAY!!!!!!! No more warnings about the headlight levels. All fixed but what a carry on. I've spent ages faffing around with front sensor but it turned out to be the wiring. Some where between the sensor and control unit Two off the wires have grounded together. It through me for while as the warning I was getting a lot of the time was about low voltage. That was because the feed to the sensor sometimes manage to work so when I was measuring the voltage it seemed ok. However I soon got a high voltage warning and that's when the penny dropped. So I've run two new wires to the sensor and jobs a goodun!!!!

Just been out and it's nice not having headlights which only show 3 feet in front of the car. It was fun making the the headlights bob up and down when I was checking the front level control earlier. It's probably worth mentioning if you have the front wheel jacked off the ground but supporting the car on the chassis the sensor will throw up a fault as the input/output voltage become almost equal and record a high output voltage error.

Jacking up shouldn't through a fault on headlights (frequently does through self-levelling suspension faults though)

Then I must still have some sort of issue
