Keep your Subaru's automatic headlight aim steady with the Standard Ignition Headlight Level Sensor LSH142. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 2009-2013 Subaru Forester [All] and 2013-2015 Subaru XV Crosstrek [All], measuring vehicle ride height and communicating with the self-leveling headlight system so the system can adjust headlight height in relation to how the vehicle sits.
- Direct-fit design: engineered as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications and, once installed, restore self-leveling headlight system operation if a failed original sensor is the cause of misaimed lights.
- Load compensation: after installation the sensor can help the system compensate for headlight aim that has shifted because of a loaded trunk.
- Accurate signaling: quality-engineered to communicate with the vehicle's self-leveling headlight system and report vehicle height for headlight-height adjustment.
- Tested performance: designed and extensively tested to perform under varied conditions.
It uses a plug-in connector for a straightforward electrical connection. Signs the original sensor may need replacing include headlights that no longer level correctly, aim that stays too high or too low, or a headlight-leveling warning; diagnose the cause before replacing, as other components can produce similar symptoms.
