   • The BSS BAR also could be installed on top of the license plate (see Fig.2).
2. Installation of the left/right turn signal.
   • Step 2:  Using the voltage Multi-meter, locate the left and right isolated turn signal trigger wires behind the tail lamp. Once verified, connect the left and right signal wires of the BSS2LPB wire harness to the correct signal wires (see Fig.3, Fig.4, Fig.5).
3. LED indicator installation:
   • Step 3:  Place the LED indicators where it is visible for the driver. Ideally on the A-pillar (see Fig.6, Fig.7).
4. Speaker location:
   • Step 4:  While installing the speaker, make sure it is not obstructed by any panels inside the vehicle (see Fig.8).
   • Step 5:  Tuck the wires neatly to hide and prevent wire pinch.
   • Step 6:  While installing the GPS, make sure it is not obstructed by any panels inside the vehicle (see Fig.9).

Alert Conditions

1. When the vehicle is on, the system would start detecting objects in the blind area in the lane next to and behind the vehicle 50 feet (see Fig.10).
2. When vehicles are approaching and their speed is faster than our own speed.

How does it alert?

• Blind detection on right side:
  1. R-LED indicator will be activated and indicator will light up when there is an object approaching to the right side blind area of your vehicle at speed over 20 mph (see Fig.10).
  2. If the right turn signal of your vehicle is triggered at the same time, the R-LED indicator will blink and the buzzer will be beeping as well (with the same frequency) at speed over 20 mph.
• Blind detection on left side:
  1. L-LED indicator will be activated and indicator will light up when there is an object approaching to the left side blind area of your vehicle at speed over 20 mph (see Fig.10).
  2. If the left turn signal of your vehicle is triggered at the same time, the L-LED indicator will be blink and the buzzer will be beeping as well (with the same frequency) at speed over 20 mph.
• The LED and buzzer will not light up (no activity) if there is no object approaching to the blind area of your vehicle.
• When in reverse, the buzzer speaker will beep to give cross traffic notification and the LED will indicate the direction of incoming vehicles (or objects) approaching. Notifications will not alert, for standing objects under 5mph reverse speed.

Troubleshooting

Check the harness and make sure connection is correct
LED light is broken| Replace LED light

2

| ****

Opposite LED indicator

| Microwave sensor or LED indicators are plugged in to the opposite connector|

Make sure RED is driver side and YELLOW is passenger side.

3

| ****

Buzzer does not work

| Wrong connection or pins not making contact| ****

Check the harness and make sure the connection is correct

Defective buzzer speaker| Replace buzzer
4| Sensors or GPS does not work| Sensors or GPS module are covered by the metal bumper or other metal| Find the best location where the GPS antenna cannot be blocked by any metal
5| Unit does not work after GPS is connected| Blind spot system does not trigger the sensors if the speed is less than 20mph| Normal behavior in this case. The GPS needs to detect +20mph to trigger the sensors
