Sensor on A arm?

What sensor is on the driver side a arm on the 2003 Mini Cooper s? I have searched for hours and unable to find a diagram or any information on this sensor. Any help is greatly appreciated

Suspension position sensor, if your car has xenon headlamps, for lamp levelling.

I can't remember off hand, but I believe there is another sensor on the passenger rear. You could take a look and see what order the wires are.

On the Gen 1 cars both of the level sensors are on the left side.

According to the Bentley Manual:
Pin 1 GR/WS
Pin 4 GR/GN
Pin 5 GR/BR

This Book will save you hundreds in diagnostic fees as well as time.
