Hi all, yesterday I replaced my n/s/r shock absorber on a is300, but part of the dismantling i had to remove anti roll bar link that also secures the HID headlamp control sensor arm, when I refitted it I must have fitted the arm/sensor in the wrong orientation as now the HID level control light illuminates on the dash board.
Can any one post a pic of the correct position of there arm please so I can reposition mine.
The sensor control arm is located bolted to the lower suspension arm in front of the anti-roll bar link on the N/S/R
Thanks
p.s I have not damaged the sensor in any way as I carefully secured out of the way with a cable tie and was careful

UPDATE,
Sorted, as the sensor has an articulated lever and pivot on it, it had a choice of two positions that it could have been refitted, all I did was slackened the sensor and turned the lever through 180 degrees, refit and now lever operates correctly, Simple one to fix.
