Level Fault Workshop

The above fault came up on my 2005 Bentley. I hoisted the car and saw the sensor rod on the Right front disconnected. (probably snow). I reconnected the sensor rod and the fault still keeps coming up a minute after I start the car and it still seems to be sitting 1" lower on the right front. Please help.

I trust you put it in "jacking mode" before you lifted it. Try driving it around the block. I will probably re-adjust itself.

Or if you didn't put it in jack mode. Put it into jack mode then take it out again.

I also got this fault when I had a low battery

likely a leaking strut,as putting it in jack mode and lifting it up and down doesn't erase the massage. How to find the leak? I have a hoist. Sptay soapy water and look for bubbles ? Or? any ideas,and by the way,thank all for taking the time to answer. Great forum. I know its the R front as that's where the sensor strut disconnected itself. Car sits 1" lower on R front. Love this car, better than my Ferrari and Porsche. Hate to give up and take it to a dealer.

have you driven it since you reconnected the sensor rod? The error light won't go out until you drive the car. It doesn't have to go far...i.e. half a city block.
