Rear suspension problem?

All of a sudden the air suspension light came on. Checked with INPA, no errors. I pressed down on all the relays in the trunk, stayed off for some time, when I went to some unpaved road (slowly), it came back on. The car's height seems normal.

Now, when I start the car, the light goes off, but it comes on again after a while.

We had some pretty bad rain yesterday night, are there some sensors that might have got wet? If so, where are they located?

Ideas please?


Oh yes, E53 3.0d

Sensors located in the wheel well very easy to see when you remove a wheel. Google is your friend you'll find videos and photos. Right sensor ALSO used to aim the HID if you have.

Well, that's strange, because today, after trying to diagnose the car with INPA again, the self-levelling suspension light came on constantly. Eventually, I found that No 87 fuse was blown, replaced it and the light went away.

That's a little odd, I can't understand why the light went off and came back on again, yesterday. If a fuse is blown, it is blown, the light should be on constantly. Strange things!
