Title: Headlight aim warning can't turn off
Post by: grifter on 30 January 2025, 18:54:34: This stems from I need to fix the adjuster thing on the LH wishbone for headlight aim. In the meantime whenever I get the warning I just tap the bottom left steering mounted switch to turn the warning off. Recently after the car being laid up for a bit over winter it now doesn't turn off when I click the switch, any ideas why it won't turn off now? Is this the car getting pissed off I'm not fixing it?!

Cheers

I had the whole arm off for refurb and never put sensor back and as was going to just try and replace the system. I might just put the switch back on for now.

With nothing, I didn't put the sensor back on.

I should have said leave the sensor off and hope it doesn't complain :y

It has to be manually adjusted first, so that the automatic system can keep it aligned however the car is loaded.
