Default Auto Level Headlight

My auto level headlight light came on recently. The headlights still move up and down when the car starts up in the dark.....at least the motors still work. But I have noticed that while I am driving the headlights are aiming very low. Any one have an idea of how much it costs to replace the sensors? I believe there is one in the front and rear.

Thanks.

How much? Not sure if my front or rear sensor is faulty?

Anyone ever have this fixed at a dealer?

Flocko I'm having that lil yellow auto leveling light turn on & off periodically on my dash as well. Can you post pics of those sensors so I can get an idea of what I'm looking for please bro?? Much appreciated if you can.. when I changed my headlights, this what I thought might be the whole auto leveling unit... but if those pics don't show where the actual auto leveling unit I need to replace is, please enlighten us bro! I really need to change that. I'm tired of that light.

I had a minor accident last year on my driver side and it damaged my headlight... so I'm positive it's on that side that my auto leveling is bad. At night that light tends to be real low or not as aligned as the right side... if I can just find out what I'm looking for to replace I can turn that dam light off!
