Not answering your question, but if you can get the car up to normal height then pull the 20A main suspenison fuse from the rear fuse panel then it won't be able to lower.

did you replace with the correct sensor, the 2012 have adaptive and use all 6 pins and the earlier ones only use 3 of the 6 2011 L322 Autobography - a lot of bells and some of the whistles...owner with no idea! |

Yes I replaced it with 2 new ones and still get the same fault code |

I seem to recall it’s possible to fit the height sensors upside down without it being obvious - may be worth double checking depending on who fitted them. Jonathan

As said it's easy to fit them the wrong way. Also the wiring is poorly protected ( typical of the whole car) so it may be this is the fault and not the actual sensor. 2012 TDV8 Vogue (L322) |

As JayGee said the wiring is a weak point, IIRC they sell a part lead with a new plug and tails which will need fitting... Pete

Hi all just had a look at the voltage at the top of the dynamic strut tops on the front both read 0.88 volts

Right front voltage looks unusual but check the voltages at access height and off road height so you can confirm they are all changing and in the same direction. Does your diagnostic tool have a suspension calibration function like the GAP IID tool? 2012 TDV8 Vogue (L322) |

Just checked my height sensor voltages and the front right also seems to have a low value compared to the rest so this may just be a quirk of the system as the actual heights are within 10mm of each other all round.
