- 2013 PIU 3.7 NA
I searched but came up empty.
My new-to-me 2013 PIU has 4 rear bumper sensors that seem to be useless. I verified and there ARE 'things' with two wires in each sensor location. I'm not sure if they count toward BLIS or backup proximity alert. Nothing on my dash, mirrors or Forscan indicate that BLIS or backup proximity work, nor does changing the Forscan options seem to do anything. (I reverted back to original after I changed and tested with no effect). Maybe I had the wrong forscan values? I also realize BLIS need L&R radar units, but since I'm new to this vehicle, I may be missing something.
The question is, why would they put these expensive sensors in if they aren't used? Is there something in the As-Built data to test? Any help would be appreciated.
