Self leveling warning light flashing
 
Hi all, posted this in the Lighting section but no response, hope someone can help..

I have an '06 STi. The self leveling adjusters work and I can reset them (but I'm certain they point too high) but on the dash I get a blinking warning light, it blinks twice every second or so? I've scanned the OBDII port and get no errors, I thought it might be of use.

I've read that the sensors are prone to failure and I will check them over the weekend. Can someone point me in the right direction to buy these if needs be?

Cheers :thumb:

It's usually the level sensors on the axle either front or rear suffer water ingression. Pull the plugs off them and spray some water dispersant in

Thanks, will do this over the weekend and hopefully that's problem solved :)

Had similar on my 06.... Front sensor, water gets in as the plug is on top of the sensor, flashed on and off for a while then on permanently, lights pointing sky ward!
Managed to get a rear sensor from a breakers, and fit it to the front, sealing up the plug to stop water getting in.
Been fine since

My dashlight has been on for over a year. The headlights are fine, but as its now an MOT failure I have to pay £££ just to turn off a warning light :mad::mad:

light goes out once you change sensor so,,,,, 50 quid new sensor versus price of computer

But that's £50 for a second hand part which has exactly the same design flaws as the original and no warranty, that's assuming you know which one is causing the fault.
