Hi, update from last weeks thread, new radiator fitted and all good now. So today thought I would try to do a recalibration on my front sensors due to the front end of my rangey keep dipping and rising whilst driving along and causing my newly refurbed comp to run very hot. So I plugged it all in using rsw software, got good idle then started to measure all four corners, both rears are spot on but my front passenger side is a inch and half higher than the rest, started at access height (16") from wheel centre to wheel arch lip, got all my measurements from this site, so I tried to bring down the difference in height but it just will not have it, I can recal the drivers side up to meet the passenger side but then she is all out of whack. So I tried to recal at normal height but again can not get the passenger side any where near the other. All the other heights measure spot on but can not do anything with the passenger side? Could any one please tell me what is going on? I fear it is going to cost me yet again, (a new sensor, but would replace both as the other could die soon too) or is there a fix to my problem, thinking back I wonder if I let the front axle hang to low whilst changing the air bags and causing damage to the sensor because it did start playing up shortly afterwards? Any help really appreciated and thanks in advance.Paul.
 
Quite likely to be the sensor or the connector. When you did the airbag, the sensor would have moved past it's normal travel position and picked up crap on the wiper.

It might recover if you disconnect the arm and move it through it's full range a few times. Check the connector is clean.

You should not be able to damage the sensor by letting the axle hang unless the shocks are knackered or the wrong ones have been fitted.
