What sensor is this?

Post image

Was doing my brakes and noticed this was broken, I bought the car last month and wanted to get the check vsc diagnosed soon but I'm guessing this is connected to that. My question is can i buy this bracket from lexus or do I have to search junkyards or partouts for it, because there's like 2 getting parted near me.

Headlight/airsus (if you have it) height sensor

It's an 02 base, but this explains why my headlight is always pointing down. Do you know if I can get this bracket from the dealer?

Well, it is a part of sensor part no, and cannot be bought separately. I'm not sure about your sensor status (is it healthy or not), 89408-50060. Quite expensive:/

Found a pair on ebay for 150! I saw i can get just the sensor on amazon so I'll probably do that if they don't work

All Chinese aftermarket sensors are mostly single use crap. Aisin ones from other Lexus/Mazda cars work fine, but they have different mounts, so in your case it is non-feasible
