Wanted - Headlight level sensor
« on: 12 July 2015, 18:08:13 »

I have a 2000 Omega, the facelifted one. I did a MOT test here in Sweden and they declared that the front level sensor was broken. They were able to see this as the arm had popped of the sensor and lay with the linkage on the wishbone. As of this i was given one month ('til the end of july) to fix it or the car will be given a driving ban  :'(

I asked the local dealer and a they take £340 for a new one!!!! I've also tried the scrapyards around Sweden but noone seems to collect these sensors....

Is there anyone who can sell me a sensor, or knows someone who does?

Thank you in advance!

It's not the sensor arm that has popped from the linkage, it's the sensor arm that has come of the sensor itself and from what i've heard it's unfixable.

Thank you PhilRich!! I will contact him.

It depends how long it has been popped off for... No harm in trying the same repair though ;)

Assuming that you haven't already, of course :y
