Help! Someone backed into my LX470 going about 15 to 30 MPH. Now my AHC[two front accumulators] is not working and the insurance company is telling me that they can see no connection between the accident and these parts. Before the accident, all was fine. Any thoughts?

It may be the sensors? possibly just knocked a connection loose. More often then not they are the reason for suspension failure and not the actual accumalators.

The dealer, especially the dealer's bodyshop, will be able to attest to the connection between the impact and the AHC system. Probably is a sensor. But could be something more serious.

Seems kind of obvious that the impact would place some strain on the suspension and that the suspesion is tied into the AHC.
