Touch wood my Lexus RX has been faultless I stopped and restarted the car and all went back to normal but i'm now worried. Having done a couple of searches here it could be a leveling sensor problem. Anyone had this replaced - if so how much are we looking? I'm presuming it's not a DIY job?? I reckon all this could be related to some condensation i've been seeing in my passenger headlamp.

Do I need to apply adapter stickers to the lenses? Thanks for getting in touch. No, it is illegal to do this as it can blind other drivers. The vehicle has a flat beam pattern and therefore is suitable for touring. Hi, thanks for your reply. Is it illegal to use the Adaptive lighting or is it illegal to disable it? AFS adapts the headlamp level to how the vehicle is sitting, this is designed so that the headlights do not point too high if there is a weight in the rear. All I want to know is Do I need to switch off the adaptive front lights when driving abroad? Apologies again for the confusion. An investigation will be going into this and we will get back to you as soon as possible.

Thanks: Jimmy.

Noticed the difference in power to mine, extras like heated seats, bluetooth phone, upgraded NAV nice but on the whole not a lot of difference. The AFS moves the low beam headlights slightly right or left in concert with turning the steering wheel. This system starts to operate when the vehicle is moving 19 MPH or more. Really only noticable at night on a dark curvy road.

If it comes back on, then i would use a multi meter to figure out which sensor is bad. Reply to this topic Start new topic. This thread should help. After a journey in the dark in which the afs light was flashing, i parked with the headlights on and noticed that the dipped beams were not stationary.

If the system is operational, the light will go off in about one second. Actually, it is not too dangerous to drive with a disabled AFS. Your vehicle still has normal lighting ability to continue your journey.

Good luck! The sensor is just a variable resistor so I'd say the internal connections need cleaning. Followers 2. Meanwhile, I tried the lights again today and still no startup dance, but the headlamp beam was higher, then lower, then higher Is it normal that the start-up dance does not occur at every start-up?

There is more to the AFS system than headlights that can cause these errors so before anyone accuses them for putting in wrong headlights, the real arguement is them making the blinking AFS go away since it could need new headlights and sensor adjustments, etc, etc, on and on.
