Trying to get to a bad sensor in the back bumper. I get the "Check Parking Aid" on the console and one of the sensors isn't making a clicking sound. The question is - how to replace that sensor. In the videos I've seen most Expeditions or F150's have vacant access behind the bumper. With mine there is a foam block and a hitch in the way (#3 & #9 ) as seen here http://www.silverstatefordparts.com/2006-Ford-Explorer-Limited-Bumper-Components-Par-s/185614.htm in the diagram. The strip (#2) in the diagram is where the backup sensors reside and I'm not sure if it pops out or is screwed in from behind. I gave it a pull yesterday, but it seems pretty snug and I didn't want to break anything.
Anyone have any ideas or suggestions on easily replacing these backup sensors?
Thanks!
