How It Works

Arnott RH-5289 is a suspension ride height sensor that reports front suspension position to the air suspension control system. On Volkswagen Multivan, Transporter, and California T5 applications, accurate sensor input helps the system maintain the correct ride height and respond properly to load changes and road conditions. This part number, RH-5289, is a direct-fit replacement for front-position service on the listed vehicles.

Common Problems It Can Address

• Incorrect ride height readings from a worn front sensor
• Air suspension warning lights related to height signal faults
• Uneven front suspension stance caused by inaccurate sensor feedback
• Delayed or improper air suspension response
• Sensor damage from road debris, moisture, or salt exposure

Installation Notes

Compatible with front-position service on 2010-2019 Volkswagen Multivan, Transporter, and California (T5) models. Mounting hardware is not included. Verify connector style, terminal type, and mounting points before installation. This part uses a single connector, pin terminals, and a black 4-pin oval female connector with male blade terminals. For best results, replace in pairs when the opposite side shows wear or inconsistent readings.

Quality Assurance

Arnott builds this sensor as a new standard-grade replacement and lab tests it for extended cycle life. The design is intended to withstand exposure to debris, water, and salt in everyday suspension service. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
