    Default xenon self level motor problems

    hi, had trouble with the self level motor a week or so ago, got the headlight out and fitted the new one, all good, now the other one is setting itself too high all of a sudden, it might be where im going down hill and it kicks up and gets stuck? do i need another blooming motor? any ideas? if i turn engine off and on and corrects itself, cheers

    First of all check all the connection are fully connected, including the ECU for the headlights. Mine never used to level at all, turned out it was unplugged at the ECU.

    You could swap them over if you think it's getting stuck, or maybe just park facing a wall/fence and jack the back up so you see the lights go up & down when you turn the ignition on, then see if they drop when you lower the car.

    Either way Tech 2 can calibrate them by running them through the height levels before zero'ing them to the centre position, which would make sure that they are returning properly.

    Again, a Tech 2 will pinpoint the problem when it does the calibration check. Cheaper than buying a sensor/motor in the hope that you get it 1st time?
