The rear one seems to cause the most problems. Corrosion and rust on the inside causes the malfunction.

I don't think you listed the correct part on this post. That was only a mechanical linkage. There isn't any electronics package with that listing.

I think this is what you'd need for the rear sensor....-------> Rear AFS sensor linky

The first one is what you want. The second one is just the arm. Take note of the old senors position that way your lights are aimed correctly with the new one. Also the the sensor should be located on the left rear.

Thanks never replaced one. My first one busted I traded it in. Does the link itself bust or what? Thanks

FWIW now that it warmed up no light for 3-4 days

If the link broke the light would stay on. Don't be surprised if it comes back on. Mine has done the same thing. Off and on at times.
