Detailed Product Information

Standard Ignition LSH101 is a headlight level sensor that reports suspension height changes to the vehicle lighting system. On BMW models equipped with automatic leveling or adaptive lighting, this sensor helps the headlights maintain correct aim as load and ride height change. The plug-in design supports straightforward electrical connection at the sensor interface.

This part number, LSH101, is listed for a wide range of BMW applications including the Z4, X3, X5, 3 Series, 5 Series, 7 Series, 760i/760Li, and M3/M5 platforms. Fitment varies by model, position, and lighting package, so confirm the notes for Adaptive Headlights, Xenon Headlights, and sport suspension before ordering.

Common Problems This Sensor Can Address

• Headlights pointing too high or too low after suspension movement
• Adaptive headlight leveling faults on supported BMW models
• Incorrect beam aim caused by a failed rear or front level sensor
• Lighting system warning messages related to headlight leveling input
• Uneven headlight response when vehicle load changes

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the mounting position and lighting equipment on the vehicle before installation. This sensor is used in rear and front locations depending on application, and some BMW models require specific compatibility with Adaptive Headlights or Xenon Headlights. Inspect the connector, linkage, and mounting points for wear or corrosion during replacement.
