HID Headlight adjustment

I did some searching but didn't really find what I was looking for. My HIDs are pointed really low and I can't see 5 feet in front of me at night. I manually adjusted them a few nights ago, but they self adjusted back to the same place.

Is there any way I can disconnect the sensors to stop from self adjusting? Or is there anything else I should do? It's a 2005 with stock HID projector. Thanks.

Thanks! I'm going to disconnect the sensors and hopefully they won't self adjust, I won't mind if a dash light comes on. I can deal with that.

I was going to suggest just replacing the sensor (FE03-51-22YB) .. but that little darned thing is 500$+ ....
