Collision Avoidance and Parking Assist Systems: Description and Operation

Parking Aid

NOTE: The Smart Junction Box (SJB) is also known as the Generic Electronic Module (GEM).

The parking aid system consists of:

- Parking aid sensors (located in the rear bumper cover)
- Parking Aid Module (PAM) (located behind the LH rear seat trim panel)
- Parking aid speaker (located under the left side of the parcel shelf)
- Parking aid disable feature (integral to the Instrument Cluster (IC) message center)

The parking aid system calculates the distance to an object around the rear of the vehicle by the use of 4 ultrasonic sensors. The parking aid system detects objects behind the vehicle when the REVERSE (R) gear is selected.
