Installing Sensors
Part 1
-
Locate bumper sensor locations.
- Mark the locations with masking tape and a pencil mark.
- The recommended height from the ground is between 18” – 20”. Measure the desired height and mark it on the bumper
- Measure the width of the bumper and refer to the diagram to mark appropriately spaced locations across the bumper.
- If not installing upper sensors, Install only A-D.
NOTE: Before you drill any holes into the bumper, check to see if the sensor locations will have any interference with the sensor installation (such as wire harnesses, braces, or bracketry).
-
Using a 1/8” Drill bit, pre-drill holes at your desired location. Using the provided 1 1/16” (27mm) hole saw, open up the holes. NOTE: When drilling through thick metal, soak the hole saw in WD-40 or machine oil and reapply often to prevent dulling.
-
Test fit the sensor. If necessary, use a rasp to gently file off any metal burr or debris to ensure the sensor fits freely. The sensor should have some play in the hole.

Part 2
- Put a rubber washer over the sensor, then push the sensor into the hole. Put another rubber washer over the sensor and then the screw nut. (See diagram). There should be a rubber washer on both sides of the vehicle material.
- Tighten the screw nut hand tight and do not over tighten.
ECU Placement & Wiring
Part 3
-
Find a location to mount the ECU in the rear of the vehicle. Mount it with screws.
-
Plug the Sensor Extensions into the ECU.
-
Route the Sensor Extensions along the bumper and find or create a way to get the Sensor Extensions outside the vehicle towards the sensor locations. It is recommended to pull the wires through an existing grommet from the vehicle, but if there are none present, drill a hole and be sure to add a fitting grommet and silicone to ensure a water tight seal.
-
Connect the sensors to the extension wires. (Be sure to connect sensor A to plug A, B to B, and so on.)
NOTE: If using only lower sensors. Use only A-D. -
Connect speaker to the 4-pin connection and screw the connector tight.
-
Connect the power harness 4-pin connection to the ECU.
-
Locate accessory and reverse 12v wires from either the tail lamp or the fuse box and run leads to the ECU.
-
Connect YELLOW to the reverse wire and RED to accessory.
-
Connect the Black GND wire to vehicle ground.
