HID warning
« on: 14 September 2008, 15:45:48 »
Just back from a long trip abroad, and I'm now getting a (HID) headlamp level warning error on the CID.

Any ideas on which part might be at fault, sensor or is there a module?

Thanks

Favourite culprit is the level sensor on the front n/s wishbone. Could also be rear level sensor or the actual levelling motors themselves.

Thanks, sounds like there are two level sensors then, one front and one rear.

Does anyone know where the rear one is located?

On the rear suspension arm on the nearside. The one on the offiside is for the self levelling suspension.
