Parallel Parking Assistance Sensors

Parallel Parking Assistance Sensors

The parallel parking assistance sensors are located in the front bumper cover. Both of the parallel parking assistance sensors sit sideways in the outer locations in the bumper cover and are used with the parking aid sensors for measuring during the parking process.

The following parallel parking assistance sensors are located in the front bumper cover:

• Left Front Parallel Parking Assistance Sensor (G568)

• Right front parallel parking assistance sensor (G569)


• Turn off the ignition and all electrical consumers.

• Remove the key.

Removal

- Remove the front bumper cover.


• Always follow the sequence for removing the sensor.

• Otherwise, the sensor may be damaged. Hairline cracks which lead to sensor failure can develop if too much force is used on the sensor.

• First remove the sensor from the bracket and then disconnect the sensor connectors.

- Push the locking mechanisms - arrows - on the sensor mount - 1 - toward the outside.






- Pull the sensor - 2 - backward out of the sensor bracket with the wires connected.

• When removing the sensor, make sure that the coupling ring (black silicone ring) remains on the sensor head and does not stick in the bracket or get lost.

• Do not bend the coupling ring.

- Disconnect the connector - 2 - from the sensor - 1 -.






Installation

Installation is performed in the reverse order of removal. Note the following:


An incorrect or damaged coupling ring can lead to malfunctions.

Do not bend the coupling ring.

Replace damaged coupling rings and ensure the correct ring is installed.

• Since the lengths of the sensor heads of the front parking aid and the parallel parking assistance sensors are different, the high coupling rings installed are also different.

- Make sure the correct decoupling ring is installed on the sensor head.











- Replace the sensor decoupling ring - 1 -.

• Pay attention to the connectors when installing the sensors.

• When installing the sensor, make sure the coupling ring is correctly mounted on the sensor head and that it does not fall off or become jammed when inserting into the sensor holder.

• Both retaining clips on the sensor holder must engage audibly when installing sensor.

- Make sure the sensor is seated correctly in the bracket after installation. Dimension - a - for the circular gap between the sensor head and bumper cover must be even all around on the outer side of the bumper cover.
