Rear Suspension Drop fixed

Recently my Lr3's been dropping overnight and occasionally I would get slow suspension rising,
loss of all hdc functions and lowering suspension while driving. I thought it might be a rear valve block leaking at first but I decided to check my driver side rear height sensor first due to an erratic bouncing wheel on my nav screen. What I found was that my terminal was corroded and one of the height sensor's little prongs broke off in the sensor's harness. $57.00 later for a new harness, and another $56 for a new sensor - all is working again. So check your height sensors and harnesses. Also apply some dielectric grease on the connectors to keep the water and salt out.

I have been having similar with front passenger. 4x4 info screen looks like there's an occasional loss of communication on that wheel when an occasional suspension fault flashes up. Sprayed the sensor and all around it with some general purpose oil the other day and fault is certainly less frequent. For the price of a set of sensors I may replace them all (with a liberal application of grease too).

Make sure you check your harness as well and the connectors. Mine broke off in my harness.
