TPMS Light!!!

Thank you all for your responses.

Killcrap nailed it. The level sensor is not tight enough around the lower control arm. The existing bracket can’t keep it in place. I guess I need a new bracket to keep the arm at 90 degree. To me it is a very poor design. There is no set location for the bracket to sit in. It is mounted on a circular lower control arm. So, it can be turned easily.

I attached a PDF file from the RealOEM. The bracket on item 14 is the issue.

I was wondering if anyone could take a picture of the level sensor and post it. I like to see how it is on another X5.

Killcrap – Thank you very much for your insight!

there is a notch on the subframe where a dimple on the bracket will rest to align the sensor. not a poor design. i would question whoever works on your car.

Killcrap – I am referring to the fastener that holds the end of the sensor on the lower control arm. Can you please look at this picture http://sdrv.ms/OtKLt0 and let me know if it is installed correctly?

Thanks,
