    What is the purpose of the level ride sensor? Mine is said to be broken. Prius 2008 One mechanic told me it is for headlight adjustment. Another said it raises the back of the car when it needs to so tires wear evenly and it gives you better car control. One made it sound like I had to fix it immediately bc dangerous to drive it like that.
    Thanks for any input you can give me.

    It’s for the headlight leveling system. Your headlights are probably now aimed way too low or high.

    PS. Why did you post this one gen1 board since your car is gen 2 2004…2009 (it says it right in the title of gen 2 board)?
