Purpose and Function of the Parking Sensor

The presented sensor is dedicated for installation in the rear of the vehicle, where it is responsible for precise obstacle detection during maneuvering. It integrates with the factory PDC system, sending feedback to the control unit, which is then processed into acoustic or visual signals inside the car. This provides the driver with clear information about the distance to obstacles, reducing the risk of damage to the bumper and body elements.

Kings Red Metallic - C3J Paint Color and Matching

The sensor is finished in Kings Red Metallic - C3J, allowing for a visually cohesive integration into a bumper painted in the same shade. Proper color matching is particularly important in modern models where body elements form a uniform, aesthetic surface. Using the correct color reduces the need for additional painting and speeds up the installation process.

Technical Characteristics and Vehicle Integration

The sensor is designed as an OEM part, meaning it is compatible with factory wiring harnesses and the operating parameters of the parking assistance system. The design intended for the rear of the vehicle ensures appropriate detection angles and measurement range, matched to the bumper's geometry. This allows the PDC system to maintain proper sensitivity and stable operation without the need for additional installation modifications.

Condition, Verification, and Practical Application

The part comes from secondary circulation, allowing for an economical replacement of a damaged sensor while maintaining the original manufacturer's specifications. Before installation, standard verification of the vehicle's electrical system and checking the correct seating in the bumper socket is recommended to ensure proper operation of the PDC system in daily use.
