Unhappy Auto Adjust Headlight Warning light on Dash.. Help!!

The only problem that resulted from lowering my girlfriends IS300 was the auto headlight adjust warning light came on the dash. Obviously the lowering of the car effected the sensor somehow. I have seen many Lexus's lowered with coil overs and was wondering what the adjustment is out there to fix this light. Everything works fine but that little light is on. (It's the light that is related to the headlights adjusting up or down when your on a slant or decline).

The lights are working but are probably shooting up like high beams. Look on the passenger side right under where the control arm is. You'll see a metal/silver color little rod that should be vertical but was probably put back horizontally. If so, go back to the shop that did the install and have them fix it and the problem should be fine. The other one is located in the wheel well of the front driver side tire.

Ok, thanks for the tip. I will check out the car today after work and let you know what I find. So did these/this rod get bumped during the lowering or does it just need to be calibrated to where the ride height is on the car now?

No, when the shop re-installed everything it's a common mistake to install them horizontally instead of vertically. Had it happen on my car also when I had my coil-overs installed.

Oh I gotcha, Crazy how a rod that is supposed to be vertical can still be installed horizontal. Anyway, thanks and I'll keep ya posted.
