Xenon light front suspension height sensor
« on: 02 August 2018, 17:27:22 »

X reg 2.5 CDX manual petrol estate
Ths is the car Jonny brought home yesterday. There is a message on the screen about hesdlight low beam; had a look, the front suspension sensor is broken and incomplete. The car I am stripping for spares is a GLS so will not have one. I have the impression they are scarce and very expensive. Anyone got one for sale?

I do not remember the outlook of the part but guess we are talking about this?

Thanks again. It arrived all right, is now fitted and functioning normally. It's a great relief not to have the annoying message popping up.
The xenon beam is only the dipped beam, it hardly seems worth all that fuss. My other CDX 2.5 petrol estate, same year but earlier model, does not have the xenon dipped beam, just the old twin filament bulbs. Same main beams.

This car has been on cable ties on the central joint for 3 years. Finally the joint broke off the shaft and was beyond further repair.

Nice to hear this problem solved.

I got fed up with the Low beam Fld/Vision error message and repaired mine with a metal bracket i pop riveted on, with about 1mm clearance between it and the arm.

The ball joints on the link rod were full of muck, and the link rod was solid so I cleaned them out so that the link rod moves completely freely.

Silly question but i assume the warning message only comes on if the sensor or any part of its electrical connection is faulty. It would not come on if the arm had just popped off would it ?
