Default CHECK HEADLIGHT Warning Message

Hi everybody,

I searched forum but didn't find any clue what to do and what to look for.

I have 2007 GS 350 AWD. I assume it is basic trim because there is no navigation, no backup camera, no spoiler, no ML audio.

I put care in the shop last Friday to replace rear struts. I went back to the shop on Monday to pick up car. When I turned engine on I got that message CHECK HEADLIGHT.

I have no clue what to do even after searching the forum. Any suggestion is appreciated.

Take it back to the shop and tell them about the message and tell them that theres a small sensor/actuator that reads the headlight adjustment. Many shop install this incorrectly or break them and youll get a message on the dash.

The sensor is on one side of the rear lower control arms near the sway bar end link
