Body height sensor (Range Rover 3)

On vehicles equipped with xenon headlights, the front and rear height sensors, which are located on the right side of the vehicle, are different from those equipped with vehicles with standard headlights. The sensors that are installed on vehicles with xenon headlights can be identified by a white strip located on the rear side of the sensor housing. These sensors can also be installed on vehicles without xenon headlights. The sensors that are installed on vehicles without xenon headlights cannot be installed on vehicles with xenon headlights.

Dismantling

1. Raise the front of the vehicle.

CAUTION: Do not work under a vehicle supported solely by a jack or lift. Always support the vehicle with safety stands.

2. Remove the wheel.



3. Remove the clamp securing the cable and disconnect the multi-pin electrical connector.

4. Unscrew the nut and disconnect the rod from the sensor.

CAUTION: Use a socket wrench to prevent the ball joint from rotating.

5. Using a 4mm Allen head, remove the two screws securing the height sensor to the mounting bracket and remove the sensor.

Assembly

1. Clean any dirt from the mating surfaces of the sensor and mounting bracket.

2. Align the body height sensor with the mounting bracket, install the Allen screws and tighten them to 5 N·m (3.7 lb ft).

3. Connect the link to the body height sensor and tighten the nut to 8 N·m (6 lb ft).

CAUTION: Make sure the sensor lever is facing outward.

4. Connect the multi-pin electrical connector and secure the cable with a cable tie, being careful not to squeeze the electrical wires too much so that they do not put pressure on the connector.

CAUTION: Make sure the O-ring is properly seated on the multi-pin connector.

5. Reinstall the wheel and tighten the nuts to 140 N·m (103 lb ft).

6. Remove the supports and lower the vehicle.

7. If the sensor is replaced, adjust the air suspension system using the TestBook/T4 diagnostic tool.
