Level Control System Sensor, Checking

The Vehicle Level Sensors transmit the vehicle level in the form of a signal to the Headlamp Range Control Module.

In the following, it will be checked whether Left Rear Level Control System Sensor and Left Front Level Control System Sensor send signals which can be evaluated to Headlamp Range Control Module.

In the following cases, no DTC entry is stored in Headlamp Range Control Module:

when vehicle level sensors are not installed as specified in the repair information
