My headlights are pointing far too low again.
I replaced the adjusters with metal ones some years ago and there is no play in the bulb carrier so I'm confident the problem is not in the headlights themselves.
I can hear the adjustment motors running and see a reduced size test flip up and down when I switch on so the motors are ok.
I suspect the front (or rear) level sensor has failed so I checked both for obvious damage - broken arm etc. - but no problem there.
On removing the front sensor, I note that there is absolutely no resistance to the movement of the plastic arm that forms part of the sensor (p/n 37146784696 I think). Can someone who has had theirs off tell me whether they recall any resistance at all (or a sense that the internals are moving, however imperceptible) please?
Any other suggestions before I order a £50 part without confirmed diagnosis?
Thanks,
Mike
