Not the same. His was right and yours is left. Actually no joke. You could spend hours fixing the wrong side.

I don't know the outcome. OP didn't get back and share his knowledge. If he got some.

I would disconnect harness to the left front sensor, clean it and apply some DeoxIT to it.

The other error might disappear when you fix leveling one.

Looked like that did the trick.... After 20 minutes on the road, the fault returned. Is the next step to replace the sensor itself? If so, does anyone have the part number and is it difficult to remove? I wasn't paying too much attention when cleaning the connector, so I didn't notice how it was secured to the axel components.

Any suggestions on whether replacing the sensor should be the next course of action?

For anyone searching the forums and coming across this thread. Replacing the front left level sensor solved the problem. Took 20 minutes. Sensor was 170 USD.
