Park Assist Sensor - Installation






INSTALLATION






NOTE: The park assist sensors (3) and the sensor spacers (O-rings) are each available for separate service replacement.

1. If removed, insert the sensor mounting bracket into the opening in the bumper face, until all locking tabs engage.
2. Engage the O-ring spacer around the circumference of the sensor membrane protrusion.

NOTE: Production and all service replacement O-ring spacers are tapered. The wide side (base) of the O-ring should be seated against the sensor housing and the narrow side should be oriented toward the outer surface of the sensor membrane and the rear bumper.

3. Align and insert the sensor (3) into the sensor bracket (5) on the back of the rear bumper (2) until the bracket latch features (1) are fully engaged over the top and bottom latch tabs of the sensor. Be certain that the sensor membrane is flush with the outer surface of the bumper.

NOTE: Be certain that each sensor membrane is properly centered in the openings of the rear fascia and that the O-ring spacers are not pinched. Improper centering or pinched O-rings can be detrimental to proper park assist sensor operation.

4. From the back of the bumper, reconnect the wire harness connector (4) to the sensor connector receptacle.
5. Reconnect the battery negative cable.
