That little clip is such a pain to put back on! I had to try 6 different tools including a C-Clamp, alligator clips, regular pliers, even an oil filter locking clamp! Until a crescent wrench held backwards finally did the trick and the clip gave this nice, satisfying click and reattached! Done while replacing my lower control arms this weekend. crazy!
Hi, I'm having trouble disconnecting the plug from the rear leveling sensor on my 9-5, my lights are pointed straight down making the car unsafe to drive at night, so I want to try cleaning the connections to see if it fixes my problem, however the plug is really stuck on and won't move, do you know how to remove it without breaking the plastic? Any help is really appreciated.
It's not OCD, because it won't work as designed when installed incorrectly. In addition, if the suspension gets fully extended, it will probably break the link arm, or the sensor, because of over extension.
Thanks allot bro, I have a Honda Fit with that sensor and didn't know what it was for. It was broken so now I know why my light always seems not to go too far ahead.🤔
What about on a E93? My lights point too low even after adjusting the screw. I purchased the replacement stabilizer bars but cannot find them on the car...lol. Where are they?
How do you repair the plug wires at the module if they break. My wires at the plug from the harness have a broken green stripe wire right at the housing that needs to be repaired. Thanks!
Hello I have a Bmw F32 Its been in a collision to which iv fully repaired it with oem parts, this includes a new headlight. The headlight works perfectly but im receiving the following message of "xenon control arm failure" just wondering if the the headlight needs to be programmed?
Bro, Mine is broken in the rear. Is it the same part front and rear? Can't find If there is a difference and when I Google it the part that shows up does not look like mine?
The thing is I could swear It looked like the one in the front. But realoem shows another one. Wonder if previous owner switched them up or something..
Does anyone know how to get a stuck plug off the rear sensor, on my 9-5 it's stuck on really tight and it won't move? I'm afraid I'll break the plastic.

Wow, thank you for the video. I have similar issue on my BMW Z4 that I would never guess was related to the headlights.

Excellent, very clear instructions and view. Thank you
Make sure next time to orient the linkage between the two raised areas not next to them.
Yeah that was a fail of his technical knowledge :D
he162a honestly it triggered my ocd...

@@patrikfloding7985 yes he installed it incorrectly in the video, i did the same and now it broke the plastic link arm. Good advice!
thanks that should work Ill check tomorrow, nothing worse than driving hom with the lights pointed dow on the ground , 2000 E39 540 wagon

Hello
I have a Bmw F32
Its been in a collision to which iv fully repaired it with oem parts, this includes a new headlight.
The headlight works perfectly but im receiving the following message of "xenon control arm failure" just wondering if the the headlight needs to be programmed?
Did you figure this out?
hello i have a BMW X1 F48 do you have idea where to place this part ? also on the passenger side ? if you have an video it will nice
You didnt put it back in the correct place? You were right next to where it should go the arm is moulded for it😂
OMG! You saved me!
the level on my e39 seems ok, but I think my lights are looking on the side is there adjustment left and right ?
Bro, Mine is broken in the rear. Is it the same part front and rear? Can't find If there is a difference and when I Google it the part that shows up does not look like mine?
Try going to realoem.com and look through the parts diagrams to find the exact number you need
BIMMER ZEIT im actually looking as we speak but can't find it. Only finding the one that goes in the front.
The thing is I could swear It looked like the one in the front. But realoem shows another one. Wonder if previous owner switched them up or something..
If you have a sport suspension( ie 330 sport) the front sensor is different than the rear sensor.
that was supposed to be 530 sport.
Does anyone know how to get a stuck plug off the rear sensor, on my 9-5 it's stuck on really tight and it won't move? I'm afraid I'll break the plastic.
Remove the sensor and then try to remove the connector with extra pressure using a screwdriver or something, I just removed mine 10mins ago
my linkage rod is squeaking when i go over bumps.. are they easy to replace? thanks
They're not too bad. Kind of a pain, just need patience. Here's the arm: amzn.to/1OqjBUa
thanks... can i buy the rod alone?.. i dont need the actual sensor?
That link is for just the rod. No sensor included.
ok.. thanks
Its installed in wrong way btw
