happened to me recently, ended up being a broken rear sensor, the tie bar that runs from the rear arm had snapped the little plastic arm on the sensor, fixed by drilling a little hole in the remaining palstic arm and re attaching the 2 with a cable tie, been fine again for weeks give that a check
Both fault codes came back for short to plus for both headlight level sensors. If I have a broken wire somewhere it's gotta be common to both sensors. The only time I see that is one they are at the module (J431). Looks like power is supplied to J431 then a 5volt reference is sent to each sensor from J431.

Etc. Yes, throw a towel or sth. over the front windshield (rear-view mirror area) and lights should come on. You can also check your setting in MIB for sensor sensitivity (early, medium, late) if that makes any difference - I have mine set to late. The sensor itself is dead easy to access, remove, change..
LED Headlights are adjusted by three different systems; 1) the screw adjusters on the top of each lamp, 2) the leveling sensors mounted to the left front & left rear control arms, 3) the lighting module [55].
