Rear parking sensor
 

Hi guys, got my rear bumper changed and after I changed it the parking sensors started working erratically, basically they can't be trusted anymore, what in your opinion happened

Rear parking sensors?

We don't have those here. We call our rear parking sensors "exhaust tips", "defuser" or simply "back bumper"

They just standard rear parking sensors that u find on a corrolla or something, it still beeps sometimes when I reverse and sometimes it does nothing. Used to work fine before they changed the bumper

I sort of got used to having them

Parking by Braille = *THUNK* Okay, I'm in the spot.

Just check your wire connections and the bumper isn't wobbling. Should be pretty simple a fix I would guess.

I hope they don't need to dismantle the bumper again ��

Most likely a lose wire or a bad ground.......:popcorn:

I'd suggest you take it back to whoever replaced the bumper and ask them to fix it.

Well I spoke to the guy in charge of bodywork at Toyota and explained to him whats happening, says its probably because I paint protected it and the covers of the sensors got covered in the application, pretty straightforward, they need to be cleaned and re installed

Since when do our cars have these??????

Not sure I buy that.
My GT86 was delivered with parking sensors, and I had the car coated with Ditec.
The rear bumper has since been taken off, repainted and re-coated with Ditec, and the sensors still work just fine.

Been an option on the GT86 since 2012!!!!!!!!!
Don't know about your cars....
