Default Level sensor ?

Getting the Level susp. and Headlight adjustment warning.

Vag. Says: under Xenon block
00776 - Level Control System Sensor; Left Front (G78)
31-00 - Open or Short to Ground

Also says under Level control block
00776 - Level Control System Sensor; Left Front (G78)
57-00 - Electric Circuit Failure
01771 - Control Module for Headlight Range (J431)

So I am new to the Vag-Com.
Is it that obvious that the level ctl for the front left is bad? Or could it be related to the headlight adjuster? Just trying to not order parts that I do not need.
Thanks for any input!

Don't know if this helps
Under level ctlr, Grp 4, all 4 levels are displayed (lvl ctl sensors)
Grp 5, Susp unit extention, front 1 has no number the other 3 have numbers

Default It could simply be th wire to the sensor.

The headlight warning is tired in, but probably it is more level sensor related. Check the plug and its wires befor you order parts.

VAG is only a guide, regular search and rescue is always needed.

Default My ar just came back from the dealer for the same issue

They replaced one of my height sensors as I had both lights on as well. No problems with the car height susp during the 3 weeks it took to get an appointment. (ar is under CPO)

Default I don't have my receipt from my work but I remember it just said level sensor

I will take a look when I get home tonight. My susp ran fine when the sensor was bad so I guess it would be the headlight. But you could also argue that the car has a default mode so you can still drive it without any issues. Could it just read from the other good sensors??? Just a thought.
